Christian Arithmetic

SOME one has compiled the following rules for Christian arithmetic from God’s Word:—
Notation: “I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them.”
Numeration: “So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.”
Addition: “Add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.”
Subtraction: “Let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.”
Multiplication: “Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.”
Division: “Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.”
