God has made of one blood all nations to dwell on the face of the earth. The human race is but one large family; therefore we ought to feel an interest in each other. Nature requires this, and the Scriptures inculcate it. The question once put to Cain may now be put to us: “Where is Abel, thy brother?” Abel, thy poor, vain, mourning brother. We have all one father, God; one nature, which is depraved; one residence, the world; one source of supply, providence; one business, to glorify God; one law to rule us; and one grand blessing to secure, salvation. One great principle ought to influence us, even love; for each one of us should love his neighbor as himself. “Where is thy brother?” Is he in Christ or Satan? Is he in the world or the church? Is he in danger or safety? Is he in trouble or prosperity? Is he traveling to heaven or hell? Have you acted a brother’s part toward him? Have you kept your eye on him? Have you sympathized with him? Have you sent the gospel to him? Have you tried to prevent his ruin? Have you acted a brother’s part toward him? God inquires respecting our brother, whether he is near or afar off. He expects us to seek our brother’s welfare. He will put the question again, perhaps, when we least expect it. We ought to put it to ourselves, and be prepared to answer it. Let us then look on all mankind as our brethren; let us, as we have opportunity, do good to all men; and let us become all things to all men, that we may by all means save some. Let us seek the present and everlasting welfare of all about us. Let us set our hearts upon saving souls. Let us keep this constantly before our eye, always and everywhere. Let us look upon every man, however poor or depraved, as our brother, and seek to save his soul. “Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.”—Phil. ii, 4.
