He will not be content with the
blessed assurance which comforts beyond all measure: that eternally the Good has always been victorious; the
blessed assurance which is a security that passeth all understanding; the
blessed assurance that the unprofitable servant may have within himself at each moment, even when the time is the longest and he seems to have accomplished least of all, the
blessed assurance which allows the unprofitable servant if he loses honor to speak more proudly
than that royal word: All is lost save honor.
After all, thank God that there is more to being a Christian
than getting «saved,» sitting on our
blessed assurances on padded pews, going to a bunch of potluck dinners, waiting on the Rapture Bus to swoop down and pick us all up to the «good ol' by - and - by».
