According to the
Scriptural standard, the true people of God should be the
most polished, the most refined, the most polite, the
most generous, the most kind, of all the people in the
world—and should be all these in the most absolute
sense—not in the mere sense of an outward form and
appearance of kindness, gentleness, etc., so common in the
world; but a gentleness, a kindness, proceeding from the
heart, proceeding from an appreciation of the Lord’s
Spirit and the spirit of the Truth, the spirit of love,
and the spirit of justice,
also. |
