Zeal for Christian Enterprise
Psalm 94:16
Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?


When Dr. Beecher, the father of Mr. Beecher-Stowe, lay dying, his sons said to him, "Would you rather go to heaven, or begin the battle on earth again?" The eyes of the old warrior in the cause of Christ sparkeled as he replied, "Boys, if I had the choice I would choose the battle." If all professing Christians were as eager to fight for their King against the forces of darkness, the world would soon be won to the Saviour. Alas! too many seem to think more about going to heaven than seeking to lead others there.

(The Quiver.)
