Spiritual Warmth: How to Maintain It

Spurgeon's Illustration Collection


Philip Henry's advice to his daughter: 'If you would keep warm in this cold season (January, 1692), take these four directions: 1. Get into the sun; under his blessed beams there are warmth and comfort. 2. Go near the fire. 'Is not my word like a fire?' How many cheering passages are there! 3. Keep in motion and action: stirring up the grace and gift of God that is in you. 4. Seek Christian communion. 'How can one be warm alone?'
