Mark 5:14 - Homilies By A.f. Muir

Unfriendly heralds of Christ.

I. DIFFICULTY OF GETTING THE GOSPEL TRULY AND FAITHFULLY PREACHED .

II. CONTRAST THIS WITH THE RAPID SPREAD OF FALSE NOTIONS ABOUT CHRIST , HERESIES , UNSETTLING ALARMS , ETC ,

III. COMPENSATIONS .

1 . The existence of Christ is made known. By-and-by his character will vindicate itself.

2 . Curiosity is aroused and feeling excited. Almost anything is better than indifference. And the witnesses of his truth and grace are everywhere.

3. The disciples of Christ are compelled to vindicate their Master.—M.
