Description: |
In the words we have the
inventory of a Christian, "All things are yours!" A strange paradox! when
a believer can call nothing his, yet he can say, all things are his. I
have often thought a poor Christian who lives in a prison, or some old
cottage, is like the banker, who, though he goes poor, and can hardly find
himself bread, yet has thousands at his fingertips. So it is with a child
of God, "as having nothing—yet possessing all things." What once the
philosopher said, "Only the wise man is the rich man." But I say, "only
the believer is the rich man!" Here is his estate summed up, "all things
are his."
