During a
revival meeting at a certain lumber camp, seven young men agreed together that
they never would go to that altar. They shook hands and covenanted together
that they never would go to the altar without being carried there. The
following day they were at work in a mill at the lumber camp, when the boiler
burst and these seven young men, and no others, were instantly killed. Their
dead bodies were carried to that very altar, and the funeral held in that
church. Sinner man, think not that God Almighty is not keeping account of all
your words and actions. Beware how you trifle with His laws. "Though
hand join hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished." (Prov. 11:21) |
