Be real!

From Spurgeon's sermon, "Religion- a Reality"

Oh! you who profess to be Christians,
do not live so as to make worldlings think
that your religion is a trifling thing!

Be cheerful, but oh! be holy!

Be happy, for that is your privilege;
but oh! he heavenly-minded, for that is your duty.

Let men see that you are not flirting with Christ,
but that you are married to him.

Let them see that you are not dabbling
in this as in a little speculation,
but that it is the business of your life,
the stern business of all your powers to
live to Christ, Christ also living in you.
