The Wealth and Blessedness of a Pious Family
Proverbs 15:6
In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.


I. THERE IS THE WORSHIP OF GOD IN A PIOUS FAMILY, AND, CONSEQUENTLY, "MUCH TREASURE."

II. THERE IS THE BENEDICTION OF HEAVEN REALISED BY A PIOUS FAMILY, AND, CONSEQUENTLY, MUCH TREASURE.

III. THERE IS THE PREVALENCE OF LOVE IN A PIOUS FAMILY, AND, CONSEQUENTLY, MUCH TREASURE.

IV. THERE IS TENDER AND CHRISTIAN SYMPATHY IN AFFLICTION MANIFESTED BY A PIOUS FAMILY, AND, CONSEQUENTLY, "IN THE HOUSE OF THE RIGHTEOUS IS MUCH TREASURE."

V. THERE IS AN EARNEST AND PARAMOUNT DESIRE TO DO GOOD CHERISHED BY A PIOUS FAMILY, AND, CONSEQUENTLY, IN SUCH A HOUSE THERE IS " MUCH TREASURE."

VI. THERE IS NOT ONLY THE PROSPECT, BUT THE WELL-GROUNDED HOPE, MAINTAINED BY A PIOUS FAMILY, OF MEETING BEYOND THE GRAVE, AND, CONSEQUENTLY, IN SUCH A HOUSE THERE IS MUCH TREASURE.

(T. Wallace.)
