Excerpt from Discourses on the Depravity of the Human Family: Particularly Applied to This Nation and These Times I often heard my deceased father pray aloud, wrestle with God on his knees in his chamber; when ye pray enter into your closetsand shut the door, and pray to your Father which is in secret, and your Father which seeth in 'secret will reward you openly; which was also visibly fulfilled. 'at meals he would always lift up his heart to the bountiful giver of every good and perfect gift. He did not use family worship according to method, but instructed his children in Godliness; taught the oldest to pray, and made it their duty when retiring to rest, to instruct those younger in the same exercise He unfolded to us the plan of salvation by repentance to God, and through faith in a crucified Redeem er, and the consequent joys to be shared with the Holy Angels in the kingdom of heaven. He would suffer no sin upon any of his children, that is, to live in a habit contrary to the word of God, but would re prove, and his words had to be obeyed there was firmness of character about him, blended with mildness and affection. His children were regularly schooled, according to the cus tom of the place, although he himself had but one month's schooling; yet he could write, cast up accounts, keep his own books, and read well; which shows what may be ac complished by application, in lieu of idling away the time in dissipation and wickedness, which an all-wise and gracious God measures out for higher and nobler purposes. In due time his children were disciplined fin Godliness, according to the rules of the church to which he belonged, instructed in her catechism and according to scripture, to deny the world, the flesh, and the-devil; and live godly, sober, righteous and holylives; and to believe in Jesus the only Saviour and Me diator, and Name given whereby sinners can become recon ciled to God, and finally live with him in all joy, glory, felici ty, and happiness, forever and ever.
