Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Witness of Jesus and Other Sermons The noblest and most enduring record which any man can leave behind him, when he has finished his earthly labors, is the influence which his life has made on other lives, which, transmitted from one generation to another, becomes a perpetual force for good while the world stands. While such a record is not traceable for human eyes in all its wide and subtle ramifications, it is none the less real and potent. A consecrated personality is the mightiest force for the uplifting of humanity which this world has ever known or can know. A good man is God's best gift to the world. Such a man cannot live and labor and suffer and die without putting into active operation good influences which, embodied in other lives, become permanent factors working for the world's redemption. It has often, however, been a matter of regret among his brethren and friends that Alexander Procter did not, during his active life, put into more enduring form those ideas and truths which, as preached by him, so profoundly affected those who heard them.
