It was a good question

It was a good question, which the young man proposed, 
"What shall I do to inherit eternal life?" Luke 10:25. I know 
I shall be eternally happy—or eternally miserable; eternally 
blessed—or eternally cursed; eternally saved—or eternally 
damned!

"Oh! what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" My cares, my 
fears, my troubles—are all about eternity! No time can reach 
eternity, no age can extend to eternity, no tongue can express 
eternity. Eternity is that one perpetual day which shall 
never have end; what shall I do, what shall I not do—that I 
may be happy to all eternity? Eternity depends upon those few 
hours I am to breathe in this world.
