Creed and Life
1 John 4:19
We love him, because he first loved us.


"Religion is not a creed, but a life." We will venture to put two little words into that sentence, "Religion is not only a creed, but also a life." Is not this nearer the truth?

1. In religion there is a creed. "He first loved us."

2. In religion there is a life. "We love Him."

3. In religion there is a life because there is a creed. "We love because He loved."

(C. Clemance, D. D.)
