There are certain truths in God’s word which are condemned to silence; they, forsooth, are not to be uttered, because, according to the theories of certain persons, looking at these doctrines, they are not calculated to promote certain ends. But is it for me to judge God’s truth? Am I to put his words in the scale, and say, “This is good, and that is evil?’ Am I to take God’s Bible, and sever it and say, “this is husk, and this is wheat?” Am I to cast away any one truth, and say, “I dare not preach it?” No: God forbid. Whatsoever is written in God’s Word is written for our instruction: and the whole of it is profitable, either for reproof, or for consolation, or for edification in righteousness. No truth of God’s Word ought to be withheld, but every portion of it preached in its own proper order.
