To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Their works do follow them." — Not as a plea of merit. Not one among the saved, but will acknowledge his obligations to redeeming love alone. Still, while all the glory of salvation belongs to Christ, he condescends to tell us that our " works of faith, and labour of love" shall not be forgotten ; but shall be remembered and publicly rewarded before an assembled universe. The full measure of the reward which divine grace will bestow on those who die in the Lord, in this distant world we can n...ever know ; for it is a glory which eye hath not seen, and which it hath not entered into the heart of man to conceive. In what language could we describe that world of bles- sedness, the distant outlines of which, could only be sketched by the spirit of inspiration ? What tongue could tell us of the joys of those who have entered its gates of pearl, and walk its golden streets ; and who mingle in blessed com- munion with the spirits of the just made perfect, and the Saviour of the world? There, while every want shall be supplied, their enjoyments shall be beyond the power of change.
