I Will Tell You The Secret. God

There Are Men So Incorrigibly Lazy That No Inducement That You Can Offer Will Tempt Them To Work; So Eaten Up By Vice That Virtue Is Abhorrent To Them, And So Inveterably Dishonest That Theft Is To Them A Master Passion.

The Tendency Of Fire Is To Go Out; Watch The Fire On The Altar Of Your Heart. Anyone Who Has Tended A Fireplace Fire Knows That It Needs To Be Stirred Up Occasionally.

There Are Different Kinds Of Fire; There Is False Fire. No One Knows This Better Than We Do, But We Are Not Such Fools As To Refuse Good Bank Notes Because There Are False Ones In Circulation; And Although We See Here And There Manifestations Of What Appears To Us To Be Nothing More Than Mere Earthly Fire, We None The Less Prize And Value, And Seek For The Genuine Fire Which Comes From The Altar Of The Lord.

To Get A Man Soundly Saved It Is Not Enough To Put On Him A Pair Of New Breeches, To Give Him Regular Work, Or Even To Give Him A University Education. These Things Are All Outside A Man, And If The Inside Remains Unchanged You Have Wasted Your Labor. You Must In Some Way Or Other Graft Upon The Man's Nature A New Nature, Which Has In It The Element Of The Divine.

I Must Assert In The Most Unqualified Way That It Is Primarily And Mainly For The Sake Of Saving The Soul That I Seek The Salvation Of The Body.
