The Revised Version of Hebrews ii. 1 runs thus : " Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things that were heard, lest haply we drift away." Is not drifting the danger to which we are most exposed ? For every one that definitely turns his back upon Christ, there are hundreds who drift from Him. The young man starting in life does not. distinctly say, " I renounce my father's God," but he finds himself among those who do not, care for religion ; he relaxes bis efforts and begins to drift, until the coast- line of Heaven recedes so far into the dim distance that he doubts if he ever really saw it. The business man yields in trivial points to the pressure of competition, and is borne far beyond his first intention. The professing Christian did noc with one leap cease to open the Bible and pray, but drifted into an Arctic Region, where he is likely to perish unless rescued on the warm Gulf Stream of the love of God. It is so easy and so much pleasanter to drift 1 But then follows the unanswerable question, " How shall we escape if we neglect?" The sailor who refuses harbour and lifeboat does not escape. The self- murderer who tears the bardage from his wounds does not escape. Did the Israelite escape wbo refused to sprinkle the blood upon the door, posts of his house 1 Did the man who gathered sticks on the Sabbath day escape, although he might have pleaded " first offence " 1 Did Moses and Aaron escape, though they were the leaders of the people? ". Every transgression and dis- obedience received its just recompense of reward." How, then, shall we escape ? Is it likely we should escape if we have neglected the only name given under Heaven among men by which we can be saved, and refuse that which it cost God so much to give? If we neglect ( and notice that to neglect is to reject) there is no escape. Are we neglecting ? Are we drifting ? Let us ask the Son of God to . come on board and stay us, and bring us into port.
