Primitive Christianity Revived, Again
Intro.: The Court of Quaker Opinion will grant that psychology has become the means of understanding the inner life of human beings.
Conv.: We are convinced that understanding the inner life has more to do with conversion than with introspection - more about turning around than turning inward.
Intro.: But getting in touch with your feelings and hidden impulses leads you to see who you are and what you want from life.
Conv.: Turning around from who you feel you are and what you want allows you to find your true self in God. It is an experience of your truth rather than of your certainty, or that of your psychologist.
Intro.: You can not abdicate your responsibility to know yourself as living in this present world, or escape your human inclinations in it.
Conv.: To know yourself as living what Love created is the escape of the "love child" who refuses to be determined by beginning circumstances in this present world.
Intro.: Yet, we must begin somewhere.
Conv.: It's where we end that matters, yet we'll grant your legitimacy as an Intro. to the inner life.
