Oh! how different is the simple word of God! How refreshing and strengthening, and from Himself! I dread filling my mind with notions, but reading any quantity of them only shows how wretchedly poor they are. How should man's mind reveal God's thoughts? Rationalism and mysticism may resist or mingle them up, but they remain themselves and only themselves. Revelation all these things deny, and that is the real point. And what a thing it is to have one! 326
