PULPIT KINDNESS.

By Simpson

The language of the sermon should always be kind. During the preparation let the soul be filled with love. Make no concealed or sharp thrusts, intended to wound feelings or resent some fancied insult. That may be the wisdom of the serpent; but not the harmlessness of the dove. I think it is Sir Francis de Sales who says: “I would give one hundred serpents for one dove.”—Simpson.
