Live to explain thy doctrine by thy life. - Matthew Prior, To Dr. Sherlock--On his Practical Discourse Concerning Death We are not called on to believe this or that doctrine which may be proposed to us till we can do so from honest conviction. But we are called on to trust--to trust ourselves to God, being sure that He will lead us right--to keep close to Him--and to trust the promises which He whispers through our conscience; this we can do, and we ought to do. - John Campbell Shairp I move for a creed for all our denominations made out of Scripture quotations, pure and simple. That would be impregnable against infidelity and Appolyonic assault. That would be beyond human criticism. Let us make it simpler and plainer for people to get into the Kingdom of God. - Thomas De Witt Talmage Logic has its use and metaphysics has its use, but neither of them is of much help in the making of a creed. - Thomas De Witt Talmage The question is not whether a doctrine is beautiful, but whether it is true. - Unknown, in Guesses at Truth That doctrine which rectifies the conscience, purifies the heart and produces love to God and men is necessarily true. - James Barr Walker, Philosophy of the Plan of Salvation The Avon to the Severn runs, The Severn, to the sea, And Wickliff's dust shall spread abroad Wide as the waters be. - Daniel Webster, quoted in an address before the Sons of New Hampshire As thou these ashes, little brook! will bear Into the Avon, Avon to the tide Of Severn, Severn to the narrow seas, Into main ocean they, this deed accurst, An emblem yields to friends and enemies How the bold teacher's doctrine, sanctified By truth, shall spread throughout the world dispersed. - William Wordsworth, Ecclesiastical Sketches (pt. II, Wicliffe) Displaying page 2 of 2 for this topic: << Prev 1 [2]
