Rules For Young Men

 Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

Here is a quote from William Temple, a great Christian who lived from 1628-1699, on the rules for the development of young men.  I hope that it will be a blessing to you.















"The best rules to form a young man are:
to talk little,
to hear much,
to reflect alone upon what has passed in company,
to distrust one's own opinions,
and to value others that deserve it."

What Is Worship?

 Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

Here is a quote from William Temple, a great Christian who lived from 1628-1699.  I hope that it will be a blessing to you.

"Worship is the submission of all our nature to God. 

 It is the quickening of our conscience by His holiness;

 the nourishment 0f our mind with His truth;  

the purifying of our imagination by His beauty; 

 the opening of our heart to His love; 

 the surrender of our will to His purpose- and all of this gathered up in adoration, the most selfless emotion of which our nature is capable and therefore the chief remedy for what self-centeredness which is our original sin and the source of all actual sin."
