If, Unable To Solve The Mysteries Of

That The Apostolic Office Is Temporary, Is A Plain Historical Fact.

The Church, During The Apostolic Age, Did Not Consist Of Isolated, Independent Congregations, But Was One Body, Of Which The Separate Churches Were Constituent Members, Each Subject To All The Rest, Or To An Authority Which Extended Over All.

Christian Humility Does Not Consist In Denying What There Is Of Good In Us; But In An Abiding Sense Of Ill-desert, And In The Consciousness That What We Have Of Good Is Due To The Grace Of God.

All Church Power Is, Therefore, Properly Ministerial And Administrative. Everything Is To Be Done In The Name Of Christ, And In Accordance With His Directions.

When We Are Weak, Then Are We Strong. When Most Empty Of Self, We Are Most Full Of God.
