Temple: faith is fellowship with God

Feast of William Temple, Archbishop of Canterbury, Teacher, 1944
Meditation:
[Jesus:] “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must obey them and do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.”
—Matthew 23:2-3 (NIV)

Quotation:
Faith is not the holding of correct doctrines, but personal fellowship with the Living God... What is offered to man’s apprehension in any specific Revelation is not truth concerning God but the Living God Himself.
... William Temple (1881-1944), Nature, Man and God, London: Macmillan, 1934, 1949, p. 322 (see the book)
See also Matt. 23:2-3; John 3:18-19; 8:24,39; Heb. 11:6

Quiet time reflection:
Lord, I seek You.
