Leviticus 6:13 The fire shall ever be burning on the altar; it shall never go out. Some Christians are like those toys they import from France, which have sand in them; the sand runs down, and some little invention turns and works them as long as the sand is running, but when the sand is all out it stops. So on Sunday morning these people are just turned right, and the sand runs, and they work all the Sunday; but the sand runs down by Sunday night, and then they stand still, or else go on with the world's work just as they did before. Oh! this will never do! There must be a living principle; something that shall be a mainspring within; a wheel that cannot help running on, and that does not depend upon external resources. Parallel Verses KJV: The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.WEB: Fire shall be kept burning on the altar continually; it shall not go out. |
