Excerpt from "Jerusalem" (1804-1820)
....to labor in knowledge is to build up Jerusalem: and to despise knowledge is to despise Jerusalem and her builders...he who ...mocks a Mental Gift in another calling it pride and selfishness and sin; mocks Jesus the giver of every Mental Gift, which always appear to the ignorance-loving hypocrite as Sins, but that which is a Sin in the eyes of cruel Man, is not so in the eyes of our kind God.
Let every Christian as much as in him lies engage himself...publicly before all the World in some Mental pursuit for the building up of Jerusalem.
