Broken Bread, from an Evangelist's Wallet

II.—Unbelief manufactures sorrow for the godly.

Project Gutenberg EPUB edition Champness, Thomas
Open passage
Jesus said they looked “sad.” It is a pity to employ unbelief; he does not know how to make a smile. When he tries it is a misfit. If the disciples had believed Jesus, they would have been dancing for joy, for they would have been round the tomb to see Him rise. We have lost that picture, because no one believed the Lord enough to expect His words to be fulfilled.—Mark viii. 31.
