The Sweetest Fruit is on the Higher Branches - Winslow

"Beloved reader, the richest ore lies buried the deepest, the sweetest fruit is on the higher branches, the strongest light is near the sun. In other words, if we desire more knowledge of Christ, of our full pardon and complete acceptance, if we desire the earnest of our inheritance, and even now would taste the “grapes of Eshcol,” we must be “reaching forth unto those things that are before,” we must “press toward the mark,” and rest not until that is found in a clear, unclouded, immoveable, and holy assurance of our being in Christ; and this is only experienced in the sealing of the Spirit.

"Again we say, with all the earnestness which a growing sense of the vastness of the blessing inspires: seek to be sealed of the Spirit; seek the “earnest of the Spirit”; seek to be “filled with the Spirit”; seek the “anointing of the Spirit”; seek the “Spirit of adoption.” Say not, it is too immense a blessing, to high an attainment for one so small, so feeble, so obscure, so unworthy as you."

-O. Winslow
