The Christian’s Glorious Hope
By G. Castle
Bro. G. Castle writes from Hillsdale Co., Mich.: To those who love the truth I want to say that I am trying to walk by the same rule. It is fifteen years since I began to look for the coming of Jesus. Twelve years ago I began to keep the Sabbath. I supposed that Jesus would come in three or four years at the most. Well I am still looking. My love to God, his law, and his people has not grown cold. The latter rain will soon be felt by those who are looking for it. The Christian's hope is a bright and glorious one. It is no time now to hold back, no time now to lay up the riches of this world. The heavenly treasure looks brighter than ever; riches and honor in one hand, and long life in the other. Only think for one moment of being caught up to meet the Lord in the air by the bright and loving angels. Think of the harps, and the crowns, and of entering in through the gates into the city. I confess I get excited when thinking on this glorious subject. I never feel sorry that I have tried to live a Christian.
