Principles and Practices - January 9

Man's Duty

As creature he is bound to acknowledge out­wardly the fact of his dependence upon God, and if he finds expression of it in a special way by means of prayer, he will attain to his most solemn recognition of it through what is known as sacrifice.

-Paulin Giloteaux.
