Sincerity

Sincerity.—The other day a traveling journalist assured the readers of a London daily that the Chinese were sincere in their religious life, and should be let alone. It is a familiar saying, and very often it is taken for granted, that the man who is sincere is also right. But the Bible couples “sincerity” with “truth” in the service of God. A man may sincerely enough take the wrong road in traveling, but it can never lead him to his destination; nor would it be reasonable for any one to plead his sincerity as a reason for not pointing out to him the right way.—Present Truth.
