Text Appearing Before Image: tian has money, you see how hecan readily use it in such a wayas to enable him to accomplisha very great and grand work inthe world. The man who haslots of money and has a conse-crated heart, and who is willingto use his money to help him inhis work for Christ, will be ableto accomplish very much morethan the man who has nomoney. He can use his moneyin such a way that it will enablehim to cast a light in many adark corner of the earth, tobring light in many a desolate home, and to cast the rays of hisChristian influence even across the ocean into benighted heathenlands. In this way his money can be used as I could use this dollarif it were polished, and thus carry his influence to the ends of theearth and to the end of time, and become a great blessing to himselfand to others for all eternity. Jesus said, Men do not light a candle and put it under abushel, but on a candle-stick that it may give light to all that are inthe house.

But I want to show you, by the aid of this large necked bottle, what is the effect of our tryingto hide our light. I have chosenthis bottle because you can seethrough it, and observe what isgoing on inside of this glassbushel or bottle. The neckbeing very large, you can read-ily see that the light is not abso-lutely smothered. Now, whenI place this bottle over the light,you will see how very quicklyit begins to grow dim, and thenmore dim until it dies out alto-gether. There, you see, it hasgone out already! Just asquickly as it burns out from the Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work.
