AT a great business exhibition in London there are many devices shown whereby to save time. So wonderfully have things progressed of late years that the saving in time cannot now be shown in hours. Patentees are proud to show some invention that will save a minute. For instance, there is one device whereby the moment you step upon the mat a spring opens the office door before you, and you are saved the time and effort of opening it. The people who are interested in these things have been called minute-minders.
How many keen business men, who know that time is money, who are minute-minders, yet commit the folly of being Eternity-Forgetters. Profound folly, fraught with frightful consequences!
Is my reader one such? I beseech you to take thought for eternity. Let every other question be in abeyance till this question is settled. Heaven or hell? Eternal bliss or everlasting despair? Eternal life or the second death?
Christ died to save you. He died for the ungodly, for the strengthless, for sinners, for enemies, for you. Will you accept His love and avail yourself of the efficacy of His blood? “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved?” (Acts 16:3131And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. (Acts 16:31).) A. J. F.
