We Should Even Go Beyond Doing What

Persecution Has Come Upon Us, Right Honorable Brethren, And Persecution In The Severest Form. Shepherds Are Persecuted That Their Flocks May Be Scattered. And The Worst Of All Is That Those Who Are Being Treated Ill Cannot Accept Their Sufferings In Proof Of Their Testimony, Nor Can The People Reverence The Athletes As In The Army Of Martyrs, Because The Name Of Christians Is Applied To The Persecutors. The One Charge Which Is Now Sure To Secure Severe Punishment Is The Careful Keeping Of The Traditions Of The Fathers.

When Our Lord Says, 'i Have Not Spoken Of Myself' (jn. 12:49), And Again, 'as The Father Said To Me, So I Speak' (jn. 12:50), And 'the Word Which You Hear Is Not Mine, But The Father's Who Sent Me' (jn. 14:24), And In Another Place, 'as The Father Commanded Me, Even So I Do' (jn. 14:31), It Is Not Because He Lacks Deliberate Purpose Or Power Of Initiative, Nor Yet Because He Has To Wait For The Preconcerted Key-note, That He Employs Language Of This Kind. His Object Is To Make It Plain That His Own Will Is Connected In Indissoluble Union With The Father.

He Who Sows Courtesy Reaps Friendship.

We Do Not Accost A Physician As We Do Any Mere Nobody; Nor A Magistrate As We Do A Private Individual. We Try To Get Some Advantage From The Skill Of The One And The Position Of The Other. Walk In The Sun, And Your Shadow Will Follow You, Whether You Will Or Not.

Just As We Would Have No Need Of The Farmer's Labor And Toil If We Were Living Amid The Delights Of Paradise, So Also We Would Not Require The Medical Art For Relief If We Were Immune To Disease, As Was The Case, By God's Gift, At The Time Of Creation Before The Fall.
