Reserve Power of Christianity Yet to be Manifested
Daniel 2:44-45
And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed…


All the oxygen breathed into our lungs is not at once expended again. By the complex processes of our human system, no remotest corner of the body but is supplied with this element of the air against such uses as may require it throughout a future more or less extended. Vigour of body, vigour of mind, vigour of soul, are but other expressions to denote the sum of energies which are in reserve in the respective realms of the physical, the mental, and the spiritual. Christianity's power, even at present, it is not possible to estimate, and never will be known unless we can know the reserve of soul which God's heavenly grace has stored in His children's hearts. In the final conflict between good and evil, this reserve will doubtless be called upon. Thus, against that day, let us preserve and reserve His grace.
