Excerpt from The Church Year Pulpit Library: Easter Day First Sunday After Easter

II. See, again, how the t affects the sin against which we are so constantly struggl any longer against it? If my life is so short, let me enjoy my sm, and no more try to tear it from m heart and life. Certainly there have been noble souls, there are no le men to-day who, even with no knowledge of their immortality, will never say this, to whom sin is so evidently a violation of the laws of their life that, even with no thought Of the future, they will struggle against it to the end which seems to them so final. But to the main art Of mankind sin will not be easily resisted when there is no faith) in the immortality Of the soul. If I am but a wave of the ocean to kee form fora moment and then sink into nothing, what matter is it t at the wave be broken into spray and lost a little before its time if it must sink at the last? But how terrible must sin appear to us when we think of man as immortal Terrible enough, surely, when we think of what a man is that he should violate the laws of his being and sin. It is an awful thought that a young man should be impure and degraded who might be pure and holy; but how infinitely more terrible this becomes when we consider his sin in the light of im mortality, and remember that the consequences Of that sin must go on for ever and for ever.
