"THOUGHTS OF IMMORTALITY"----BY VARIOUS MAN OF THE PAST

                THOUGHTS OF IMMORALITY

Aristotle:   "Whatever that be within us that feels,

                    thinks, desires, and animates, is

                 something celestial and divine, and

                    consequently it is imperishable."

Cicero:    "When I consider the wonderful activity

                  of the mind, so great a memory of

               what is past, and such a capacity for

                  penetrating into the future; when I

              behold such a number of arts and

                 sciences, and such a multitude of

              discoveries arising; I believe and am

                   found persuaded that a

             nature which contains so many things

                  within itself cannot be mortal".

Byron: " I feel my immortality o'er-sweeps all

                my  pains, tears, all time, all fears;

           and peal like the eternal thunders of the

               deep, into my ears this truth, . 

           "thou livest forever.".

Yes, these and other men of the past agree that

man does not cease to exist, but will live

Eternally. Many times in the Bible this truth is expressed.

In view if this fact, it is in our eternal interest to

become just a Christian, and let Christ direct our l.ives.
