“When the Son on the Cross promises paradise in his company to the good thief, when he promises the future feast in Heaven to the Apostles, when he speaks of the kingdom of the Father, he is always pointing toward eternity. However brief and close to the earth his words sound, they echo throughout infinite eternity and permeate the faith of his followers with their eternal content. He knows what he speaks of, what he brings with him and what he promises; and he can convey it to those who know it not. The very words he uses are designed to awaken in them a new sense: the sense of the eternal.” KnowsUseEarthFatherSpeakHeavenSoundCompanySonPromiseEternalCrossesEternityInfiniteKingdomsParadiseFollowersThievesEchoesPointingApostles Author:Adrienne von Speyr
“An eternal marriage is eternal. Eternal implies continuing growth and improvement. It signifies that love will grow stronger with time and that it extends beyond the grave. It means that each partner will be blessed with the company of the other partner forever. Eternal signifies repentance, forgiveness, long-suffering, patience, hope, charity, love, and humility. All of these things are involved in anything that is eternal, and surely we must learn and practice them if we intend to claim an eternal marriage.” IfsMeanLongSufferingGrowsGrowthCompanyPracticeForeverHumilityInvolvedEternalClaimsStrongerBlessedCharityPartnersImprovementGravesRepentanceContinuingBeing BlessedLong SufferingEternal Marriage Author:F.

“Does it seem all but incredible to you that intelligence should travel for two thousand miles, along those slender copper lines, far down in the all but fathomless Atlantic; never before penetrated … save when some foundering vessel has plunged with her hapless company to the eternal silence and darkness of the abyss? Does it seem … but a miracle … that the thoughts of living men … should burn over the cold, green bones of men and women, whose hearts, once as warm as ours, burst as the eternal gulfs closed and roared over them centuries ago?” MenShouldHeartDoeTwoSeemsLinesSilenceCompanyDarknessCenturyColdThousandTravelOceanEternalMen And WomenMiracleGreenIncrediblesIntelligenceWarmBonesMilesAbyssVesselSlenderShipwreckThousand MilesCopperAtlantic Ocean Author:Edward Everett

“Faith shall save your Soul from Death. Without Faith, Death is a drowning, the end of ends, and what sane man wouldn't fear that? But with Faith, Death is nothing worse than the end of the voyage we call life, and the beginning of an eternal voyage in a company of our Loved Ones, with griefs and woes smoothed out, and under the capacity of our Creator.” MenLoveSoulEndsAgeGriefCompanyEternalCapacityCreatorYour SoulLoved OnesSaneWoeDrowningVoyages Author:David Mitchell
