Christian Character
• For the Spirit to recreate in us the
character of our Lord we involve
ourselves only in those things
which will produce Christlike
purity, health, and joy in our lives.

highest standards of Christian taste
and beauty. While recognizing
cultural differences, our dress is to
be simple, modest, and neat,
befitting those

wives must submit
yourselves to your

how pure and reverent
your conduct is.

inner self, the ageless beauty
of a gentle and quiet spirit,
which is of the greatest value
in God's sight.
