Gold Nugget 133 - Belief In Humanity
We must believe in humanity before we can love men. Believe, that is, that there is an ideal of God in every man; that underneath his depravity and degradation there is a moral nature which can be renewed, and a life which may be transfigured into the glory of Christ. For man’s conscience was made to know the truth, his heart to feel it, and his will to be guided and energized by it. If we think of men cynically or contemptuously, then there will be no earnest efforts to save that which is lost.
The Pulpit Commentary, I Timothy p. 28, I Timothy 1:5, (W. M. Stratham)
