- Description:
- Sermon written by Reverend Henry Newton based on the verse 1st Timothy 4:8. Newton argues that 'bodily exercies profiteth little' whereas 'godliness is profitable unto all things.' He explains that churches that emphasize ritual have strayed from the path and only true religion brings bounty. He then explains what true religion consists of: 'obedience to the will of God in feelings, desires, thoughts, words and actions.'
