master passions of your soul

"With an enthusiastic love for Jesus difficulties are surmounted, sacrifices become pleasures, sufferings are honours. But if religion is thus a consuming passion in the heart, then it follows that there are many persons who profess religion but have it not; for what they have will not bear this test.

Examine yourself on this point.
Aaron’s rod (Exodus 7:12) proved its heaven-given power.
Is your religion doing so?
If Christ be anything he must be everything.
O rest not till love and faith in Jesus be the master passions of your soul!"
