The following paragraph, from an English paper, may possibly have some application to the rich christians of this country: "What an awful thing it is to die rich! Imagine the Master auditing the account of a servant who has left behind him a million! If that poor wretch who had but one talent was cast into outer darkness because he laid it up, instead of using it in his Master's service, what will be the doom of those who, with their half-millions and millions (while giving, it may be, a few thousand's for decency's sake) have year after year hoarded up countless treasures which they could never use? Think of the poor saints pinched with cold and hunger! Think of the Redeemer's cause languishing for the want of that filthy lucre which they hold with close-fisted selfishness! Yet listen to their talk! 'I am but a steward.' 'I am not my own.' 'Every believer in Jesus is my brother or sister.' What a mockery! Will not this be the Master's language to many a professor: 'Out of thine own mouth will I condemn thee?' The above remarks are equally applicable to many persons who do not possess such gigantic fortunes.
