The Home Life

By Presbyterian Banner

The Scriptures of the Jewish dispensation very clearly direct our minds to the home as the basis or fountain of that life fashioned and developed in the image of God. Tainted or corrupted at the base, there is little indication of hope in the future. And our Lord did not fail to lay great stress on the reception and indoctrination of the child. The thought followed to its logical conclusion is a potent suggestion that the Bible and an altar in every home will prove an invincible fortification against the influences of evil, and provide a basis for development of character that no subsequent display of "world-wide movement" on the part of man can effect or offer.
