NOTE A.
The writer, in the preceding part, has presented a mode of religious training adapted to schools composed of children whose parents are of different sects.
There is one modification of this mode, which the writer wishes to present to that class of parents who not only believe in the Supreme Divinity of Jesus Christ, but are in a habit of addressing their worship to Him distinctively; believing that this is the way in which we have access to God the Father, who is worshipped as dwelling in Jesus Christ. Such suppose that the Bible sanctions alike the mode of addressing Jesus Christ distinctively, and also the Father distinctively, and that we can pray in either mode with acceptance.
It is believed that parents who hold this view will find great aid in the religious training of their children by adopting this method.
In commencing instructions from the Bible, let the first lesson consist of such texts as the following:
“Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners.”
“And his name is called the Word of God.”
“All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made that is made.”
“In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.”
