Preach the Gospel

PREACH THE GOSPEL.—Go, then, to a work so solemn that angels might tremble to bear the trust—a word so pregnant with issues for good or for evil, in time and eternity, that imagination fails to embrace their number and full significance—as becomes the children of earth. Firm yet gentle; bold to reprove, tender to restore—weak in ourselves, yet strong in the mighty God of Jacob; apply to your task. Go! despair not amid difficulties, and shrink not from toil; and though no earthly recompense is yours, at the resurrection of the just you will have a sure reward—a crown of righteousness that fadeth not away.
