Statesman or Sinner

Listen from:
Daniel Webster, the famous American politician and orator, once spent a summer in New Hampshire. Every Lord’s Day he attended some meetings in a hall nearby.
His niece asked him one day, why he went there, when he paid little attention to far abler sermons in Washington. He replied,
“In Washington they preach to Daniel Webster, the statesman, but this man has been telling Daniel Webster, the sinner, of Jesus of Nazareth.”
“All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” Rom. 3:2323For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Romans 3:23).
