An iceberg in the Church!



(Henry Law, "Beacons of the Bible" 1869)

"The former preach Christ out of selfish
ambition, not sincerely." Philippians 1:17

A lukewarm ministry is a withering blight.

It is an iceberg in the Church! 

It freezes and deadens.

Can lips be cold which speak . . .
  of heaven;
  of hell;
  of never dying souls;
  of God's everlasting love in Christ!

With such themes . . .
  hearts should glow;
  words should burn;
  arguments should put forth giant strength;
  entreaties should agonize.

Can I then speak with chilly apathy?

Away with indifference when
such interests are at stake!
