Gluttonous feasting and the indulgence of narcotics and stimulants, are carried to great lengths even by the Christian world. How many close their last precious hours of probationary time, in scenes of gaiety, feasting and amusement, where serious thoughts are not allowed to enter, where the spirit of Jesus would be unwelcome! Their last precious hours are passing while their minds are benumbed with tobacco and alcoholic liquors. There are not a few who pass directly from the dens of infamy to the sleep of death; they close their life-record among the associations of dissipation and vice. What will the awakening be at the resurrection of the unjust!

Grådige fester og udsværgelse i narkotika og stimulanser, føres vidt ud, endog i den kristne verden. Mange afslutter de sidste kostbare timer af deres nådetid i lystighed, fest og fornøjelse, hvor alvorlige tanker ikke tillades adgang, og hvor Jesu Ånd ikke er velkommen. Deres sidste dyre øjeblikke forsvinder, mens hjernen er lammet af tobak og spiritus. Ikke så få går direkte fra lastens huler ind i dødens søvn. De afslutter deres livshistorie blandt lystens og lastens venner, Hvilken opvågnen vil det blive i de uretfærdiges opstandelse!
