"If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and
all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but
have not love, I am nothing." 1 Cor. 13:2 We must come back to the
first principles of practical piety, and cultivate the passive
virtues of the Christian character. We must remember that
Christianity is being like Christ, and that unless we partake of
that love which is patient and kind, which does not envy, nor
boast, nor is proud, nor rude, nor self-seeking, nor easily
angered, which keeps no record of wrongs-we are nothing Strange
indeed it is, that men, who by their own confession are lost, vile,
ruined, helpless sinners-should lack HUMILITY; and that they who
believe themselves to be saved from hell by unmerited mercy-should
be destitute of LOVE We must crucify that selfishness, which fixes
upon its own gratification, and cherish that expansive benevolence
which looks upon the good of others. We must contend to be
lowest-not to be highest We must seek to please, and not merely to
be pleased. Let us remember that HUMILITY and LOVE are the
necessary fruits of our doctrines, the highest beauty of our
character, and the guardian angels of our churches
