>> Surely, Bible-reading Christians should be the last persons on earth

>> kept in their present circumstances by the power of an all-powerful
>> God, and their future is safe in His hands. God has promised to
>> support them in the flood, protect them in the fire, feed them in
>> famine, shield them against their enemies, hide them in His safe
>> chambers until the indignation is past, and receive them at last into
>> eternal tabernacles.

>> Underneath will be the Everlasting Arms, and within will be the deep

>> This is a big old world, and it is full of the habitations of
>> darkness, but nowhere in its vast expanse is there one thing of which

>> "Lord, I'll go today in the power of these awesome promises. I'll
>> rest in these strong assurances. I'll face this 'big old world' and
