business is no substitute for practical
religion. Let no one imagine that a
bank account or a pleasing voice in
song, or a standing in select society"
or living in a so-called cultured at

Christianity. Some day these all will
stand forth stripped of their glamor.
Faith, reverence, purity, righteousness,
gentleness and a Christ like character
are the treasures above price. These
qualities are cultivated by obedience
to Gods laws for the development Of
the spiritual life. ooh come let us
worship and bow down, let us kneel
