Easy to Be Lost

By Dr. Humphrey

EASY TO BE LOST.—Oh how many ways there are to be lost, while there is but one to be saved. It is the easiest thing in the world to be lost. If the sinner does not like one way, he may take another—he may take his choice of a hundred. Or he may just sit still, and fold his arms, and float down the current towards the bottomless pit, and he will certainly be lost, and that forever—as certainly as if he were to ply the oar with all his might. But to be saved hemust strive to enter in at the straight gate. He must wrestle, he must "fight the good fight of faith." "The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." Let every reader ask himself, Am I in the way to be saved, or in the way to be lost? Which?—Dr. Humphrey.
