More efficacious truths could never be uttered than are found in Christ's words when he said―Give me thine heart meaning the severing of earthly ties from the better part of your nature―or that which had a tendency to keep the baser part in subjection to that higher law of which he was ever a devoted observer.
When you understand that your salvation proceeds from yourself, how much more efficacious are those sayings teaching that salvation consists more in making reparation for your wrongs than through the blood of this individual Christ!
There is that fullness in His teachings that will prepare you for pure and elevating intercourse while never shrinking from those duties, which devolve upon you in working out your own salvation.
