1028. OUTWARD APPEARANCE AND INWARD CHARACTER.

OUTWARD APPEARANCE AND INWARD CHARACTER.

The outward life of Christ was true to His inward character, but, alas, how many of us claim the Name of Christ while we are destitute of His Spirit. Like the peacock, which is famed for its beauty and gluttony, there be many that have an attractive appearance, but at the same time an insatiable desire for self-gratification. Self-complacent boasting is just about as equally unpleasant as the horrid scream of the peacock. "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he" (Pro_23:7).
