The Liberator

INTEGRITY. It becomes the Christian never to enter upon any course of conduct, however trivial, while a doubt of its propriety continues on his mind, never to tamper, under any circumstances, with a conscientious doubt. 'He that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith; for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.' Aim, therefore, in all things to act as one 'that feareth always.'

Walk circumspectly and cautiously through the world, seeking purity in the midst of its pollutions. Always in a questionable matter, adopt that course which is more likely to tend to the glory of God, than to the gratification of the propensities of your own deceitful heart.

Let it be your endeavor, as far as possible, to give to earth, in your society, your pursuits, your habits, and your affection, an unearthly character; to breathe in it something of the holy atmosphere of heaven; to spread the sacred influence of Scriptural principle over the sphere in which you move, to win others round you to join in the same blessed course; and endeavor daily to attain a nearer resemblance to Him whom you adore, and a more intimate fellowship with him whom you love. This is to keep yourself 'unspotted from the world.'
