F.B. Meyer emphasizes the growing Christian opposition to strong drink and the importance of signing the Pledge of Total Abstinence as a means of protest against the devastation caused by alcohol. He encourages believers to rely on God, care for others, and recognize the personal and communal benefits of abstaining from alcohol. Meyer argues that signing the pledge not only strengthens one's resolve but also serves as a powerful example to others, fostering a community of support and accountability. He addresses common objections to signing the pledge, asserting that divine assistance is crucial for maintaining commitment and overcoming temptation.
