God is mine, and Christ is mine, and the Holy Ghost is mine, Angels are mine, and Saints are mine, all the glory of Heaven is mine, this (for ever with the Lord) is mine?
I knew a rich Mammonist near the place where I was born, 1that would once a day take all his bage of silver and gold out of his trunks, and laying them in several heaps (for he was exceeding rich) upon a large table, would go to the utmost end of the room, and there having glutted his eyes with so delightful an object for a good while, would (all on a sudden) take his run to the table, and with stretched out arms, gathering all into one vast heap (as a man overcome and distracted with joy) cry out, All is mine, Query. all is mine!

And shall not the Heirs of the Inheritance of the Saints in light, much rather delight themselves with the fore contemplation of their incorruptible, 3undefiled inheritance that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for them?
