July 26– From The Imitation of Christ by Thomas A. Kempis (~1420) translated by William Benham
Summary: Everyone needs Jesus.
Commentary: That's really all this is. There's a bit of half decent advice in here:
We must not trust every word of others or feeling within ourselves, but cautiously and patiently try the matter,
But then it immediately goes back into:
whether it be of God. Unhappily we are so weak that we find it easier to believe and speak evil of others, rather than good
Which seems rather contradictory to the whole "liberal education for a free person to make good decision" gist behind the whole 5FSOB project.
