Quiet Hour - Day 166

Thoughts for the Quiet Hour - June 15

I have set thee…that thou shouldst be for salvation unto the ends of the earth. —Acts 13:47

Ye shall be witnesses unto me…unto the uttermost parts of the earth. —Acts 1:8

Men are questioning now, as they never have questioned before, whether Christianity is, indeed, the true religion which is to be the salvation of the world. Christian men, it is for us to give our bit of answer to that question. It is for us, in whom the Christian church is at this moment partially embodied, to declare that Christianity, that the Christian faith, the Christian manhood can do that for the world which the world needs.

You ask, “What can I do?”

You can furnish one Christian life. You can furnish a life so faithful to every duty, so ready for every service, so determined not to commit every sin, that the great Christian church shall be the stronger for your living in it, and the problem of the world be answered, and a certain great peace come into this poor, perplexed, phase of our humanity as it sees that new revelation of what Christianity is. —Phillips Brooks
