the mask. God has doubtless
convicted you of one thing more than another that you have got to be
honest with them about. Start there. Be a team of two to work for
revival amongst your circle. As others are broken at the Cross they
will be added to your fellowship, as God leads. Get together from
time to time for fellowship and to share your spiritual experience
with real openness. In complete oneness pray together for others, and
go out as a team with fresh testimony. God through such a fellowship
will begin to work wondrously. As He saves and blesses others in this
vital way, they can start to live and work as a fellowship too. As
one billiard ball will move another billiard ball, so one group will
set off another group, until the whole of our land is covered with
New Life from the risen Lord Jesus.

CHAPTER 4
THE HIGHWAY OF HOLINESS

One of the things that we must learn if we are to live the victorious
Christian life is its utter simplicity. How complicated we have made
it! Great volumes are written, all sorts of technical phrases are
used, we are told the secret lies in this, or that and so on. But to
most of us, it is all so complicated that, although we know it in
theory, we are unable to relate what we know to our practical daily
living. In order to make the simple truths we have been considering
even clearer, we want in this chapter to cast them all in picture
form.

The Highway.

An "over-all" picture of the life of victory, which has come to many
of us is that of the Highway in Isaiah 35: "And an highway shall be
there and a way and it shall be called the way of holiness." The
picture is that of a Highway built up from the surrounding morass,
the world. Though the Highway is narrow and uphill, it is not beyond
any of us to walk it, for "the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not
err therein." Though there are many dangers if we get off the road,
while we keep to the Highway there is safety, for "no lion shall be
there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon." Only one kind of
person is barred from walking there and that is the unclean one. "The
unclean shall not pass over it." This includes not only the sinner
who does not know Christ as his Saviour, but the Christian who does
and yet is walking in unconfessed and uncleansed sin.

The only way on to the Highway is up a small dark, forbidding
hill--the Hill of Calvary. It is the sort of hill we have to climb on
our hands and knees--especial
