Scougal on "The Worth and Excellency of a Soul"

“The worth and excellency of a soul is to be measured by the object of its love. He who loveth mean and sordid things doth thereby become base and vile, but a noble and well-placed affection doth advance and improve the spirit into a conformity with the perfections which it loves.”


- Henry Scougal in The Life of God in the Soul of Man

  1. I need to read Scougal again! Thanks for the reminder. As has been said, "beholding is becoming!"
