2. Believe that...... You ought to give up your right and draw back from contentions. If we are wrongfully driven from one place the Lord will make room for us in another.

3. Do not confuse Life with World and Reality. Do not use your life to strive for things of the world. Strife will only lead to weariness. Trust in God for he is faithful and gracious. Learn to live in peace with all men.

4. What is your birthright? You will be tested as to how you value your birthright and the life and blessings thereof. It is folly to part with your interest in Christ for the riches, pleasures and honors of this world

6. "People are ruined, not so much by doing what is amiss, as by doing it and not repenting of it, doing it and standing to it." To handle yourself use your head, to handle others your heart.
