If I have any worth, it is to live my life for God so as to teach these peoples; even though some of them still look down on me.

I would not attack the faith of a heathen without being sure I had a better one to put in its place.

I, myself, identify myself as a heathen.

Heathens are unredeemed outcasts from heaven who roam the planet without hope of surviving the deaths of their bodies. They may have values, but they are not secured by any divine source. Yet we embrace this because we think it represents the truth.

You desire that which exceeds my humble powers, but I trust in the compassion and mercy of the All-powerful God.

From my example learn to be just, and not to despise the gods.

That said, your values will not always be the object of public admiration. In fact, the more you live by your beliefs, the more you will endure the censure of the world.

God values you simply because He created you. You are precious to Him, and your value will never change.

To repay evils with kindness is the religion I was taught to practise, and this will forever be my rule.

To make your people understand what righteousness is, this must be the basis of all your teaching.
