"Secret of Success in Christian Life and Christian Work; Or, the Secret of Success in Christian Life and Christian Work" Overview
Book may have numerous typos, missing text, images, or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1881. Excerpt: ... POWER IN OPERATION. The power we have been considering is the Presence of the Holy Spirit. He is omnipotent. Power in operation is the actions of the Spirit or the fruit of the Spirit. This we shall now consider. Paul writes in Gal. v, 16, etc.: "This I say then, walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

That is God's standard, where He wants all His children. These nine graces mentioned in this chapter in Galatians can be divided in this way: Love and peace and joy are all to God. God looks for that fruit from each one of His children, and that is the kind of fruit which is acceptable with Him. Without that we can not please God. He wants, above everything else that we possess, love, peace and joy. And then the next three--goodness, long-suffering and gentleness-- are towards man. That is our outward life to those that we are coming in contact with continually--daily, hourly. The next three--faith, temperance, meekness --are in relation to ourselves...
