Ephesians 3:17
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,


Liturgies, although a great lawmaker, would allow none of his laws to be written. He would have the principles of government interwoven in the lives and manners of the people as most conducive to their happiness. The multiplication of Bibles that stand upon bookshelves or lie upon tables is an easy matter, but to multiply copies of walking scriptures, in the form of holy men who can say, "Thy Word have I hid in my heart," is much more difficult.
