The professedly learned are forever trying to bring to nothing the faith of the humble believer, but they fail in their attempts.
Their arguments break down, their theories fall under their own weight, their deep-laid plots discover themselves before their purpose is accomplished.
The old gospel is not extinct yet, nor will it be while the LORD liveth.
If it could have been exterminated, it would have perished from off the earth long ago.
We cannot destroy the wisdom of the wise, nor need we attempt it, for the work is in far better hands.
The LORD Himself says, "I will," and He never resolves in vain.
Twice does He in this verse declare His purpose, and we may rest assured that He will not turn aside from it.
What clean work the LORD makes of philosophy and "modern thought" when He puts His hand to it!
He brings the fine appearance down to nothing;
He utterly destroys the wood, hay, and stubble.
It is written that so it shall be, and so shall it be. LORD, make short work of it.
Amen, and amen.
~Charles Spurgeon~
