IN HIS NAME

It was in all probability for material assistance only that the beggar appealed to the two disciples as they entered the gate Beautiful of the temple, upon that wonderful day so many centuries ago, and when Peter corrected the false sense of need and awakened in this poor man's thought a concept of spiritual supply, he leaped and shouted for joy.

SELF-KNOWLEDGE

There is a wonderful store of wisdom behind the admonition of the Grecian philosopher, "Gnothe seauton".
