"For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground;I will pour my spirit upon your descendants, and my blessing on your offspring.They shall spring up like a green tamarisk, like willows by flowing streams.This one will say, “I am the Lord’s,” another will be called by the name of …
"How have we learned Christ? It ought to be a startling thought, that we may have learned him wrong. That must be far worse than not to have learned him at all: his place is occupied by a false Christ, hard to exorcise! The point is, whether we have learned Christ as he taught himself, …
