Only two families inhabit earth!

(
Henry Law, 1858)

Only two families inhabit earth!
 
In principle,
in taste,
in habit,
in desire,
in eternal destination-
they are as separate as . . .
  light from darkness,
  heat from cold,
  life from death,
  Heaven from Hell.

There is the serpent's seed.
There is the heaven-born race.

There is the wide wicked world.
There is the little flock of grace.

There is the broad road that leads to eternal destruction.
There is the narrow way that leads to eternal life.

There are the cursed goats.
There are the blessed sheep. 

Hence the importance of the question:
"Have you escaped from nature's thraldom?
 Do your feet tread the upward path of holiness?
 Do you belong to Satan-or to Christ?"
