It is a paradox that men will gladly devote time every day for many years to learn a science or an art; yet will expect to win a knowledge of the gospel, which comprehends all sciences and arts, through perfunctory glances at books or occasional listening to sermons.

They who pass opinion on the gospel without having given it intimate and careful study are not lovers of truth, and their opinions are worthless.
