FROM “MONOSYLLABLES.”

“THE world is full of books, many of them good, and yet there is room in the wide field of religious literature for another that is inspiring, uplifting, and comforting in its teaching. This little volume, bent on its mission of love, will certainly stimulate believers in the work of the Master.

Christ’s mission was to seek and save the lost, and we necessarily think that He would adopt the most possible means for its accomplishment. So we cannot wonder that He always stated the truth in the most commonplace terms possible, and that these terms, though couched in the fewest words or letters, were pregnant with the tremendous truths of His glorious gospel, which He had come to promulgate. His ‘Come,’ ‘Go,’ ‘Do’ or ‘Lo’ always contained more light and help for the weary and sad hearted than was to be found in the enchanting words of the most astute philosophers of the times. But you say that they are such little words. Little words! true, yet they cause men to stop and ponder on the downward way, and seek Jesus for the pardon of sin; and that certainly is no little thing. They have caused thousands to seek after truth, and we are told that ‘the truth shall make you free.’”

The price of “The Master’s Greatest Monosyllables” is 50 cts., postpaid.
