Patient Continuance in Well-Doing
By J. S. Washburn
ETERNAL life is granted, by Him who will render to every man according to his deeds, to those only “who by patient continuance in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality.” All the blessings of the gospel are for those who “continue in the faith.” Hope may be deferred, but “in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” Jesus endured the cross, and we are exhorted to “consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.” Are there some who, because of a lack of this “patient continuance in well-doing,” have not yet received the fulness of the blessings promised to those who would faithfully do their part in the sale of “Christ’s Object Lessons”?
