‹ Book 3 · Section 17 Book 3 · Section 18 ›

God

with

all

thy

heart

,

and

with

all

thy

soul

,

and

with

all

thy

might

.

”

Also

in

the

Gospel

according

to

Matthew

:

“

He

that

loveth

father

or

mother

above

me

,

is

not

worthy

of

me

;

and

he

that

loveth

son

or

daughter

above

me

,

is

not

worthy

of

me

;

and

he

that

taketh

not

up

his

cross

and

followeth

me

,

is

not

my

disciple

.

”

Also

in

the

Epistle

of

Paul

to

the

Romans

:

“

Who

shall

separate

us

from

the

love

of

Christ

?

shall

tribulation

,

or

distress

,

or

persecution

,

or

famine

,

or

nakedness

,

or

peril

,

or

sword

?

As

it

is

written

,

Because

for

thy

sake

we

are

killed

all

the

day

long

,

we

are

counted

as

sheep

for

the

slaughter

.

But

in

all

these

things

we

are

more

than

conquerors

for

His

sake

who

loved

us

.
