September 6: For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife. Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us. Heb. 6:16-18

His own guide-book is my treasure, and his lifeboat cannot sink; Christ, the Captain, gives me daily more than I could ask or think. “Things to come:" O depths of riches! all God's promises are sure, And through these I’m made partaker of the life which shall endure. In the "Times of Restitution" of the "all things" he hath made, I shall evermore behold him in the light which cannot fade. R1217
