True Education
pure, and noble. Students will advance as fast and as far as possible
[13]
in every branch of true knowledge. But their efforts will be directed
to objects as much higher than mere selfish and temporal interests
as the heavens are higher than the earth.
Teachers do a high and noble work by cooperating with the
divine purpose in imparting to young people a knowledge of God,
and in molding the character in harmony with His. In awaking a
desire to reach God’s ideal, they present an education that is as high
as heaven and as broad as the universe. This education cannot be
completed in this life, but will be continued in the life to come. It is
an education that secures to successful students a passport from the
preparatory school of earth to the higher grade, the school above.
