It May Be Taken for Granted

That you doa’t pray for the people you talk about. That the people who live under the same roof with you . know more about your religion than your pastor does. That the sinner who confesses and forsakes his sin will find' forgiveness. That the way to perdition is- all down hill. That people would liste purer lives if they believed that God were always looking at them. That the way to get your children and friends to love God is to first love Him with all your heart yourself. That the people who are ashamed of their religion have good reason to be.
