IT is a good rule—if you have no good to say of a man— just to be silent. Who art thou that judgest another? The lowest thing on this earth is a talebearer. Jonathan, David’s friend, loathed such characters with his whole heart! O my brother! do you love? “Every one,” it is said, “that loveth Him that begat, loveth him also that is begotten of Him.” The more of Christ you see in anyone, do you draw the closer to him? do you love him in spite of his defects?
READ your Bibles. Fill your whole souls with the thought of Christ: make Him not only a Redeemer, but a Saviour and a Friend.
