This is a' solemn thought, yet how comforting! Only God knows the deepest things in us and we shall he manifested. at the judgment Beat of Christ. A story Is told of a man who had a reputation of being most miserly. After his death It was discovered that he had pinched woman whom he and saved to had loved years before and who had married another, and to help her children.

Our text throws much light on this point la the margin of our Bibles, the word Judgment is here translated "day," so that Paul is saying: "It Is s very small thing that I should be judged of mans day." Mans day ta contrasted with the day of the Lotd," which Is still to come. The principles which govern mans day are not the principles of the Lord but rather of Satan, who la the God of this age." Hence, a Christian may expect to be misjudged by the world, for he Is a pilgrim and stranger here. The Pilgrims In Vanity Fair, as John Bunyan has pictured them, were looked on as outlandish men and people took them for Bedlamites.
