Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book's central religious theme is the morality and piousness that emanate from a deep Christian faith. The text draws on the wisdom of a sermon delivered by Abraham in which he expresses his complete confidence in the fidelity of his descendants to worship and serve God. The author uses this idea to enforce the duty and the rewards of domestic religion and especially family worship. The author suggests it is by this means that parents ensure their legacy of faith and provide the best spiritual and moral education for their children and dependents. Drawing on examples from scripture and church ritual, the author encourages readers to create and maintain family rituals and observances conducive to spiritual growth and devotion. The book emphasizes that prayer is a means of grace, and God blesses the patient use of means. In the end, the author's argument for family worship is rooted in the belief that a pious and virtuous home life is a foundation upon which a moral, just, and faithful society can be built.
