The Promised Land

How striking is the title the glorious gospel of the blessed God! 1 Timothy 1:11. And it is as appropriate as it is striking; the most cursory view of its contents will show that it well deserves such a designation. That it is a glorious gospel appears from . . . the truths it reveals the blessings it imparts the effects it produces the consolations it inspires and especially the prospects it discloses. What would death be without this divine and glorious gospel? Nothing but a leap in the dark. The passage from life would then be a gloomy one indeed; and the regions beyond the grave would be enveloped in impenetrable clouds and shadows!
