REDEMPTION.

70 place it upon a dead boy, it might press him down, but there would be no cry or groan heard. And why? Because one is alive and the other dead. Anything alive is full of feeling, but what is dead has no feeling, suffers no pain, and utters no voice. REDEMPTION. So, my dear children, it is with you. You are dead. in trespasses and sins. You do not feel your sins. Yet for all that you have a load, and a heavy load too, for you were born a child of wrath, and you have ever since, by your sins, been increasing the load and treas- uring up wrath against the day of wrath.
