Dr. Sewall, an old Methodist, when dying, shouted aloud the praises of God.
His friends said, "Dr. Sewall, do not exert yourself;
whisper, doctor, whisper."
"Let angels whisper," said he, "but the soul
cleansed from sin by the Blood of Christ, a soul redeemed from death &
hell, just on the threshold of eternal glory - oh, if I had a voice that would
reach from pole to pole, I would proclaim it to all the world: Victory!
Victory! through the Blood of the Lamb!"
Perhaps we the saints, who are still alive & well, ought
to shout out the glorious Gospel more!

1 Cor 15:57 (ESV): “But thanks be to God, who gives us the
victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
