Backsliding


We ought never to think of failing until the resources of heaven are completely exhausted. We should make no arrangements for defeat until we are certain that heaven is bankrupt. If we are cabled to the throne, we may expect to fall only when the white throne itself crumbles, totters, and goes down.

Glory!

Most of Christians are looking out for a soft place to fall. They make preparations to tumble. They are like the sister who said she could "never give up the blessed old doctrine of falling from grace."

They believe so thoroughly in backsliding that they indulge in it frequently!
