Art Class: Giotto di Bondone: Infidelity and Faith, 1306

On fidelity and faithfulness towards others and in marriage, we watched a biography of  princess Diana's turbulent life, destroyed by unfaithfulness and selfishness. 




 The type of sermon that would get most pastors handed their heads on a platter. Richard Baxter has this to say on the subject of Christian modesty in dress: "And though it be their sin and vanity that is the cause, it is nevertheless your sin to be the unnecessary occasion, For you must consider that you live among diseased souls! And you must not lay a stumbling-block in their way, nor blow up the fire of their lust, nor make your ornaments their snares; but you must walk among sinful persons as you would do with a candle among straw or gunpowder; or else you may see the flame which you would not foresee, when it is too late to quench it."
