Nature Is God's Greatest Evangelist.

Resolved, To Endeavor To Obtain For Myself As Much Happiness, In The Other World, As I Possibly Can.

The Deceitfulness Of The Heart Of Man Appears In No One Thing So Much As This Of Spiritual Pride And Self-righteousness. The Subtlety Of Satan Appears In Its Height, In His Managing Persons With Respect To This Sin. And Perhaps One Reason May Be That Here He Has Most Experience; He Knows The Way Of Its Coming In; He Is Acquainted With The Secret Springs Of It: It Was His Own Sin. Experience Gives Vast Advantage In Leading Souls, Either In Good Or Evil.

Every Christian Family Ought To Be As It Were A Little Church.

Religion, In Its Purity, Is Not So Much A Pursuit As A Temper; Or Rather It Is A Temper, Leading To The Pursuit Of All That Is High And Holy. Its Foundation Is Faith; Its Action, Works; Its Temper, Holiness; Its Aim, Obedience To God In Improvement Of Self, And Benevolence To Men.

Resolved, To Ask Myself At The End Of Every Day, Week, Month And Year, Wherein I Could Possibly In Any Respect Have Done Better.
