Good morning brothers and sisters in Christ.
The title of the message that I will share is ;
Add to Temperance Patience
Let patience have her perfect work , that ye maybe perfect and entire , wanting nothing . James 1:4
And to knowledge , temperance. ” This is the step in the path towards perfection of character . On every side there is indulgence and dissipation , and the result is degeneration and corruption. The inhabitants of our earth are depreciating in mental, moral, physical power because of the intemperate habits of society . Appetite , passion and love of display are carrying the multitudes into the greatest excesses and extravagance . . . . The people of God must take an opposite course from the world . They must take up the warfare against these sinful practices, deny appetite , and keep the lower nature in subjection . . . .It is for us to “search the scriptures ” and bring our habits into harmony with the instruction of the bible ….
” And to temperance , patient .” The need of becoming temperate is manifest as we try to take this step . It is next to an impossibility for an interperate person to be patient ..
Some of us have a nervous temperament , and are naturally as quick as flash to think and to act .; but let no one think that he cannot learn to become patient . Patience is a plant that will make rapid growth if carefully cultivated . By becoming thoroughly acquanted with ourselves , and then combining with the grace of God a firm determination on our part , we may be conquerors , and become perfect in all things , wanting in nothing .
Patience pours the balm of peace and love into the experiences of the home life . . . . Patience will seek for unity in the church, in the family, and in the community . This grace must be woven into our lives .
