Advices:
- We are
constantly reminded that Truth is greater than the knowledge anyone
of us has of it.
- In
meetings for business, work and worship together with patience and warm
affection for each other, aware of the peaceable spirit of the light of Truth. A majority
decision or even consensus is not the goal. In waiting patiently for
divine guidance, Friends’ experience is that the way that
leads to unity will open.
Queries: -
Is the vocal ministry exercised under the direct leading of the
Holy Spirit without prearrangement, and in the simplicity of truth?
-
How do we practice listening to the Truth which may be revealed by
others?
-
Do we keep to a single standard of truth, so that we are free from the
use
of judicial and other oaths?
