It seemed to me worthwhile to explore what the testimony of simplicity really meant to me. Right off, it appeared that what was simple to John was fancy to Jane, and vice-versa. The whole area of application of light to specific individual action is notional in the extreme, and any one who presumes to advise--much worse to establish rules--on the basis of his own experience falls into spiritual pride and can cause great damage.

He profits himself when he dies and he profits Christ when he kills ... Truly when he kills a criminal, he commits not homicide, but as I would call it, malicide.
