It is a question of persons dying, not their man- ner of dying. The violent death of a Christian is no less a falling asleep in Jesus. Fifteen hun- dred years ago there was a young lady condemned for her Christianity to be burned, and to whom her estate and life were offered, if she would wor- ship idols, but who exclaimed, " Let money perish, and life vanish ; Christ is better than all." Amid the flames of martyrdom, or the billows of the ocean, one may fall asleep in Jesus equally, as amidst ...the comforts and quiet of home. It was amid the shouts of a mob, and beneath a shower of stones, that Stephen fell asleep. What is it to sleep in Jesus 1 What is it to fall asleep in Jesus'? It is in faith and love to commit the soul to him, when departing this life. It is as a believer clothed with Christ's righteous- ness, leaving the body in the great dormitory of earth, and passing beyond the portal of the grave; it is bidding "good night" to earth, and hearing a " good morning " the other side.
