Excerpt from The Family Altar: Helps and Suggestions for Family WorshipThe family relation was instituted by God. Adam was not left alone. Eve was created to be his companion and to form with him a family. When the world was to be destroyed by flood, only eight persons being saved, those eight were included in the family of the pious Noah. And inasmuch as each of the three sons was charged to take his wife into the ark with him, provision was made for the continuance of the race in families. When Abram was called to leave his home and go into a far country and to establish a new race for the carrying out of God's purposes, he carried his family with him.In each of these instances the intention of Jehovah is apparent, the establishment or reestablishment of the worship of the true God in the family, and, by means of the family, to ensure its purity and propagation.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
