Description
Excerpt from The Fruit of the Spirit
In the care of the church to establish and defend sound doctrine, the ethical part of Christianity is sometimes neglected. It is, therefore, necessary that definitions which have become obscured, should be re-impressed, and the detail of a Chris tian life stated in so simple a manner, that the wayfaring man, though a fool, may not err there in. The author has long believed, that the teach ing of truth is the best way to refute error, and that there is no argument so convincing of the di vinity Of religion, as the life of a good man. He passes no censure upon his brethren who have girded on their armour, and are fighting lustily in the arena of controversy; but he thinks he makes no error in keeping aloof from such con?ict, while he endeavours to teach those whom the Head of the Church has placed under his care, to do justice, to love mercy, and walk humbly with.
