Christianity
Illustration★★★★In the Boston Library there is the famous picture showing young Galahad approaching that high throne-seat which was said to rob a man of his life. The motto was carved on that chair: “He who sits herein shall lose himself.” As Galahad moves forward, we can see the knights of the Round Table make the sign of the cross with their uplifted sword hilts. An angel draws aside the red coverlet from the chair. We can hear Galahad saying: “If I lose myself, I save myself.”— Georce A. Burrricx, Jesus Came Preaching
The point
Galahad in the Boston Library picture loses himself at the threshold of a great seat—finding true life comes through self-loss in Christ.
