Heaven, the Home of the Redeemed: Its Location, Its Character, Its People, Its Bliss / TWELVE IMPORTANT PAPERS BY WRITERS OF REPUTE COMPILED BY HY. PICKERING / PICKERING & INGLIS GLASGOW EDINBURGH LONDON
A CONFIRMATION of the need of such papers is given by FRANKLIN FERGUSON, for many years editor of the New Zealand Treasury. He says: "I have been saved over 51 years, and heard much ministry yet
I have no clear recollection of hearing an address solely on Heaven; likewise articles on the same subject are nearly as scarce.
Where is Heaven?
WHERE is Heaven? Is it not
Just a friendly garden plot,
Walled with stone and roofed with sun,
Where the days pass one by one,
Not too fast and not too slow,
Looking backward as they go
At the beauties left behind
To transport the pensive mind?
Does not Heaven begin that day
When the eager heart can say:
"Surely God is in this place,
I have seen Him face to face
In the loveliness of flowers,
In the service of the showers,
And His voice has talked to me
In the sunlit apple tree?"
B. CARMAN.
