Christ's love cannot be self-contained when hearts are full of his Spirit. Inevitably society feels the impact. When the gospel goes forth in power, both in word and deed, the world takes note that men and women have been with Jesus. Conviction of sin settles down. Sinners are moved to seek the Savior.
Moral conditions improve.
The law is more strictly obeyed. Home life takes a new glow. Benevolent institutions thrive. Integrity makes its way into government, and if penetration is deep and extensive, the whole land may learn justice and righteousness. It must be recognized, of course, that any perversion of truth will hinder the blessing of the Lord, whether conscious or not.
