The question may arise, How soon
shall 1 outgrow the pledse:" And the
answer is, Never" So long as there
is an uncurbed temper, so long as the
tongue is not in complete subsection, SO
long as there fingers a feeling Of shame
at the confession Of Christ, so long as
falsehood escapes the lips or the expires
sion of countenance, so long as there
remains one high thought that has not
been brought into captivity, SO long as
every moments action is not pleasing
to the Lord and Master, the pledges
fulfllment is yet distant, and the Chris
tian S ideal has not been reached. Rev.
