Religion, in its purity, is not so much a pursuit as a temper; or rather it is a temper, leading to the pursuit of all that is high and holy. Its foundation is faith; its action, works; its temper, holiness; its aim, obedience to God in improvement of self, and benevolence to men.
JONATHAN EDWARDS

Faith Foundation God Improvement Obedience Purity Pursuit Religion
