Christian Character not Gained in Sickness
Revelation 22:9
Then said he to me, See you do it not: for I am your fellow servant, and of your brothers the prophets…


"One should think," said a friend to the celebrated Dr. Samuel Johnson, "that sickness and the view of death would make men more religious." "Sir," replied Johnson, "they do not know how to go to work about it. A man who has never had religion before no more grows religious when he is sick than a man who has never learned figures can count when he has need of calculation."
