"Now is our opportunity for exercising ourselves in divine requirements. When Christ is in the earth, our one-time thirsty brother will not need a cup of cold water at our hands, our one-time ill-clad sister will not need our clothing. Too late will it be for our perishing neighbor to hear the gospel message from our lips. The door is open to us in these matters whilst Christ tarries. Woe unto us if we are not now busying ourselves in his concerns. We shall find to our cost that he who has opened so that no man can shut, will, in the day of his coming, shut so that no man can open."
