EXCESSIVE SELF-DEPRECIATIoN.-DO
not be so eager to disclaim personal
merit that you shall fall into the tone
of abiectness and self-contempt. Doubt
less it is only by Gods grace that you
stand, yet doubtless it is you who stand
by Gods grace. Does God who gives
this grace despise you? What right
then have you to despise yourself Z?
Since you are precious in his sight, you
ought to be honorable in your own.
Between self-righteousness and AFFECT
ness there is wide interval, and it is
not necessary in departing from the one
vice to fall into the other. GAS for me"
