Here, then, we have portrayed in all its blessedness the inner life of a perfect Man
Faithfulness, Fruitfulness and Fragrance, by F S Marsh
AMIDST the many beauties which shone in our Lord Jesus when here, there were three distinctive features – faithfulness, fruitfulness and fragrance.

Hamilton Smith (1862–1943), born in Barnes, Surrey, the son of a sea captain, was employed in the office of his uncle’s building firm, where he was later joined by his cousin F. B. Hole. By 1901, married and living in Sutton, Surrey, with his wife and young family, he had retired from the building trade and entered full time upon the task of building up the church of God. Later in life, he moved to Weston-super-Mare in Somerset, his wife Rachel’s home county. His personal ministry was delivered in the United Kingdom, but his written ministry continues to be read worldwide.
