This Is the Time for Service

Our time for service and testimony will soon be over. When we get into the Master’s presence, we shall admire and worship; but, now, in “the little while,” in the night of His absence, it is our holy and happy privilege to be “always abounding in the work of the Lord” (1 Cor. 15:5858Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord. (1 Corinthians 15:58)).
We are responsible to let the light shine forth, in every possible way – to circulate the truth of God, by all means, by word of mouth, “by paper and ink,” in public and private, “in the morning and in the evening,” “in season and out of season;” we should “sow beside all waters.” In a word, whether we consider the importance of divine truth, the value of immortal souls, or the fearful progress of error and evil, we are imperatively called upon to be up and doing, in the name of the Lord, under the guidance of His Word, and by the grace of His Spirit.
