The Gospel for the Poor

God is no respecter of persons, neither should those be who go forth in his name to offer salvation to the people. The Master was poor, and one of the evidences of his divine mission was that the “poor had the gospel preached unto them.” Who needs the gospel, and the sympathy and counsel of ministers of the gospel, more than the poor? But if the man of Nazareth were on the earth now, he would receive but little attention and few pastoral visits from many of his professed ministers. Too many of them prefer the drawing-rooms of the rich to the humble homes of the poor.—Methodist Recorder.
