This, then, is what I should like to call your thoughts to this morning ; to two 176 HEAVENLY-MINDEDNESS or three of the essentials of heaven, and therefore of heavenly-mindedness. What is the one feature that stands out in all our minds and in the yearnings of the human heart, as well as in the Christian revelation, as the essential ele- ment of heaven ? Not streets of gold, or harps, or thrones, or even the innumer- able company ; but the presence of God Himself. Without Him, heaven would be ...no heaven. With Him, heaven is, not first a locality, but wherever one is in His presence, there is the heavenly life. Not heaven in its fulness ; but the first ele- ments of the heavenly life. In entering, then, into His presence here and now, amidst our daily common interests, we have entered into a spiritual kingdom, where, so far as we live in sympathy with it, there is perfect spiritual har- mony, where there is no law of compul- sion ; but the perfect service is the per- fect freedom ; where the will of the one great loving Spirit is evidently so rea- sonable, so just, and so true, that any one who is in sympathy with the heavenly life acts in harmony with it as if it were his own will.
