Is Goodness Advancing or Receding
Christian Age
Proverbs 14:14
The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.


The heart is obedient to some law of heaven; the waters fail to flow by the attraction of sun and moon. In some parts of the globe the sea is gradually gaining on the land; in others it is gradually receding and leaving the land dry and bare. Are the full and cleansing waters of eternal life gaining on our coasts or no?

(Christian Age.)
