Description
Summary:A theology that cannot be preached is a piece of intellectual bric-à-brac. One of the most hopeful facts in the present situation of the church is that theology is making men more religious. It is for that reason that we plan to publish every now and then in the "Biblical World" a sermon by one of the great preachers of our modern world. No man could more suitably inaugurate this new policy than Dr. Ross. We particularly commend this to every man who grows impatient over the failure of the world to accept some truth that has moved his own soul. It sometimes happens that a new truth becomes a source of heat rather than of light. To keep sweet and patient, to endure misinterpretation and misrepresentation are the elementary duties of every man who would help his world.
