“If a preacher is cultured, gentle, earnest, intellectual, and broadly tolerant, the sheep of God run after him. He, of course, speaks beautifully about Christ, and uses the old words redemption, the cross, even sacrifice and atonement-but what is his Gospel? That is the crucial question.

“This it is that gives a majesty so pure and touching to the historic figure of Christ; self-abandonment to God, uttermost surrender, without reserve or stipulation, to the guidance of the Holy Spirit from the Soul of souls; pause in no darkness; hesitation in no perplexity, recoil in no extremity of anguish, but a gentle unfaltering hold of the invisible Hand, of the Only Holy and All Good--these are the features that have made Jesus of Nazareth the dearest and most sacred image to the heart of so many ages.” GivingHeartMadeSoulSelfHandsAgeSpiritJesusChristDarknessFiguresHolyPureSacredSurrenderInvisibleGentleFeaturesGuidanceHoly SpiritTouchingReservesPausesAnguishHistoricMajestyAbandonmentHesitationExtremityPerplexityRecoilNazarethInvisible HandStipulations Book:A Martineau year book: Extracts from sermons Source: A Martineau year book: Extracts from sermons
