Greatest Thing in World by H Drummond

I was staying with a party of friends in a country house during my visit to England in 1884. On Sunday evening as we sat around the fire, they asked me to read and expound some portion of Scripture. Being tired after the services of the day, I told them to ask Henry Drummond, who was one of the party. After some urging he drew a small Testament from his hip pocket, opened it at the 13th chapter of I Corinthians, and began to speak on the subject of Love. It seemed to me that I had never heard anything so beautiful, and I determined not to rest until I brought Henry Drummond to Northfield to deliver that address. Since then I have requested the principals of my schools to have it read before the students every year. The one great need in our Christian life is love, more love to God and to eacho ther. Would that we could all move into that Love chapter, and live there. This volume contains, in addition to the address on Love, some other addresses which I trust will bring help and blessing to many.

Stirling was the birthplace of Scottish theologian and biologist Henry Drummond (1851-1897). He attended Edinburgh University and was appointed professor of Natural Science at Glasgow's Free Church College in 1884. He visited the Rocky Mountains, Central Africa, Japan, and Australia, among other places. Natural Law in the Spiritual World, The Ascension of Man, and Tropical Africa are among his works.
