was the right kind of a hand?" But
he says; "I don't care whether it was the right kind of a hand or not; I
got the money, and that's all I wanted." And so people are looking to
see if they've got the right kind of a hand before they accept God by
it. They have but to accept his testimony and they are saved, for, as
John says, "He that hath received His testimony hath set his seal that
God is true." Is there a man in this assemblage who will receive His
testimony and set his seal that God is true? Proclaim that God speaks
the truth. Make yourself a liar, but make God's testimony truthful. Take
Him at His word.

Faith More Powerful than Gunpowder.

I remember at one of the meetings at Nashville, during the war, a young
man came to me, trembling from head to foot. "What is the trouble?" I
asked. "There is a letter I got from my sister, and she tells me every
night as the sun goes down she goes down on her knees and prays for me."
This man was brave, had been in a number of battles; he could stand
before the cannon's mouth, but yet this letter completely upset him. "I
have been trembling ever since I received it." Six hundred miles away
the faith of this girl went to work, and its influence was felt by the
brother. He did not believe in prayer; he did not believe in
Christianity; he did not believe in his mother's Bible. This mother was
a praying woman, and when she died she left on earth a praying daughter.
And when God saw her faith and heard that prayer, he answered her. How
many sons and daughters could be saved if their mothers and fathers had
but faith.

GOLD.

-- God will honor our faith.

-- There is nothing on this earth that pleases Christ so much as faith.

-- Faith is the foundation of all society. We have only to look around
and see this.

-- I believe there is no man in the world so constituted but he can
believe in God's word. He simply tells you to believe in Him, and He
will save you.

-- When I was converted twenty years ago I felt a faith in God; but five
years after I had a hundred times more faith, and five years ago I
had more than ever, because I became better acquainted with Him. I
have read up the Word, and I see that the Lord has done so and so,
and then I have turned to where He has promised to perform it, and
when I see this I have reason to believe in Him.
