To the Point.

The conclusion of the whole matter is, that the times demand unfaltering fidelity to every distinctive Christian doctrine. And in order to this, Christians, and especially Christian ministers, must master the situation by making themselves thoroughly intelligent upon all these and kindred subjects. Superficiality will not do. Nothing but solid masonry will serve as a mighty breakwater to roll back the sweeping tendencies of the times to a baptized and clericalized infidelity. Our picture is not overdrawn. We understand something of what we write—and much that we do not write. The true men and women of God must “earnestly contend for the faith once delivered to the saints.” — Wesleyan.
