We do not in any sense challenge the heartfelt love of the Word of those brethren

differing from us in our interpretation, neither are we moved in the least by personal

feelings, but we dare not allow such statements as have been examined to pass without

bringing them to the touchstone of the Word, and we feel that having weighed them in

the balances of the sanctuary they are found wanting, and knowing our own failings and

shortcomings we earnestly pray for deliverance from that prejudice which unconciously

reads into the Word that which it desires to see, and for that grace which will enable us to

study to show ourselves approved unto God, workmen having no cause to be ashamed,

because we have rightly divided the Word of truth.
