More From Samuel Rutherford

The young soldier it is not death without hereafter to one in dearth of life and its laughter, nor the sweet murder dealt slow and even unto the martyr smiling at heaven: it is the smile faint as a (waning) myth, faint, and exceeding small on a boy's murdered mouth.

He should have known better because, early in his learnings under his brother mahmoud, he had discovered that long human words (the longer the better) were easy, unmistakable, and rarely changed their meanings, but short words were slippery, unpredictable changing their meanings without any pattern. or so he seemed to grok. short human words were never like a short martian word - such as grok which forever meant exactly the same thing. short human words were like trying to lift water with a knife. and this had been a very short word.

To me the biggest waste of time is commuting. first, there is no place that is less than a two-hour commute from new york. you can be half a mile outside of the city limits; you're two hours away by car. i don't care how close they tell you it is. "oh, it's only thirty miles." thirty miles? at 8:30 in the morning, thirty miles outside new york, you might as well be starting out in omaha.

[to have faith in christ] means, of course, trying to do all that he says. there would be no sense in saying you trusted a person if you would not take his advice. thus if you have really handed yourself over to him, it must follow that you are trying to obey him. but trying in a new way, a less worried way. not doing these things in order to be saved, but because he has begun to save you already. not hoping to get to heaven as a reward for your actions, but inevitably wanting to act in a certain way because a first faint gleam of heaven is already inside you.
