The Christian’s Service and Honour
John 12:26
FEW men love service. Man prefers to be his own master, to do as he pleases, according to “his own sweet will,” and, like the winds, to be under no control whatever; but he who spurns the counsel of God, despises his law, and tramples on his commands, commits an act of suicide to his own liberty.
