Lamps And Pitchers

Lamps And Pitchers: An Other Addresses To Children is a book written by George Milligan and originally published in 1896. The book is a collection of sermons and addresses that were given to children, with the aim of teaching them about Christian values and morals. The title of the book comes from a biblical verse, which states that ""we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."" (2 Corinthians 4:7) Milligan uses this verse as a metaphor for the idea that children are like earthen vessels, which can be filled with the treasure of God's word.The book is divided into several sections, each of which contains a number of sermons and addresses on different topics. Some of the topics covered in the book include the importance of prayer, the value of hard work, the dangers of temptation, and the rewards of living a virtuous life. Milligan uses simple language and vivid imagery to make his messages accessible to children, and he frequently uses stories and anecdotes to illustrate his points.Overall, Lamps And Pitchers: An Other Addresses To Children is a timeless classic that has been enjoyed by generations of young readers. It is a valuable resource for parents, teachers, and anyone who wants to teach children about the importance of faith and morality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
