A Library Of Resources For Spiritual Growth
We need educated ministers, yes; we need men who know what is going on in the world about them, yes; but the great need is for men who believe firmly in the Scriptures as the word of God, and who faithfully preach the truth therein contained, in dependence upon the Holy Spirit to give efficacy to the truth, and not upon their training, their education, their ability to construct arguments in defense of the truth. The business of the preacher is to state the truth of God, clearly, fully, simply; the rest the Spirit will take care of. We need not trouble ourselves about the survival of Christianity. God will take care of that; what we need to be concerned about is that we faithfully preach it, line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little and there a little. The seed thus sown is bound to bear fruit. The promise is: “We shall reap if we faint not.”
