Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The New Dispensation, or the Religion of Harmony, Vol. 2
Father in heaven is perfect. Here humanity and faith ripen into holiness. The purity of the eye, the deeper purity of the mind, the absolute renunciation of anger, pride and lust, the doing of all good things, the suffering of all wrong, the seeking of the kingdom of Heaven at all sacrifice constitute indeed that strait gate and narrow way which leadeth into life, and few there be who find it.
It is this holiness that is laid up as treasure in heaven where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt. Often and again does Christ lay stress on hearing these things, and doing them. The promise is to them that take up the yoke. And these are the wise men who built their house upon a rock, and the rain descended, and the ?oods came and the winds blew and beat upon that house, and it fell not, for it was founded upon a rock. Such is the part that holiness plays upon the teachings of Christ.
