3. Declare his glory among the heathen. His
salvation is his glory, the word of the Gospel glorifies him; and this should
be published far and wide, till the remotest nations of the earth have known
it. Too often the name of the Lord Jesus has been dishonored among the heathen
by the vices and cruelties of those who call themselves Christians; may this
fact excite true believers to greater diligence in causing the Gospel to be
proclaimed as with a trumpet in all quarters of the habitable globe. His wonders among all people. The Gospel is a mass of wonders, its history is
full of wonders, and it is in itself far more marvelous than miracles
themselves. In his Son the Lord has displayed wonders of love, wisdom, grace,
and power. All nations need to hear of God’s marvelous works; and if a really living,
self-denying church would solemnly resolve that right speedily they all shall
hear thereof. The tribes which are dying out are not to be excluded from Gospel
teaching. None are too degraded, none too cultured, none too savage, and none
too refined.
