Excerpt from Soul and Body: A Book of Sermons Preached in the Church of the Divine Paternity, New York City
I have taken for my text the Psalmist's question: "What is man?" Many attempts have been made to answer the question. No answer that has been given is altogether satisfactory. Still we are not ready to give the question up. We too must make our guess at this "riddle of the universe." And upon the guess we make, the answer that we give, very much depends. This is not a mere idle question propounded in curiosity, the answer to which is of no consequence. Right or wrong conduct, a happy or miserable life, peace or despair in the heart, may depend upon the answer to the questions, What is man? - What am I? What is my friend, my wife, my child?
