We would say kindly to every backslider and sinner who will go on to live and die in sin, "When you come to the end, there will be some things you will never taste, hear, feel, or see again. It will be "good-by forever." I would make, if you will permit, this kindly suggestion, "Enjoy them all you can, for this will be the last." Often at the state prison, when a man is to be electrocuted and he comes to his last day on earth, at his last meal he is told to order anything he likes. He is told to enjoy it, for this is his last. So, careless soul, if you go on and die without Christ, we would suggest that on your dying couch you enjoy all you can, for this will be your last. Don't forget, sinner, to have some music at the end, for this will be the last you will ever hear.
