“Many hearers loose much blessing though critizacing to much and meditating to little and many more sin by calumniating those who work for the good of others. True pastor have enough of care without being burden with useless and undeserved foul finding. We have something better to do than to be forever answering every malicious slander witch is directed to injure us. There are tender, loving pastors who feel this trial very keenly and are hindered in their service by cruel assaults, those stronger among us laugh at those who ridicule us, but upon others the effect is very sorrowful.
As ministers we are far from being perfect, but many of us are doing our best and we are grieve that the minds of our people should be more directed to our imperfections than to our divine message. The men of these World think that they would gladly listen if a different preacher would be found, but nothing can please them; Peter is too strong, Paul is too argumentative, timothy is too young, James is too severe, John is too gentle…Well then let each servant of God tell his message in his own way, to his own Master he shall stand or Fall. Judge the Preacher if You like but do remember that there is something better to be done, namely to get all the good you can out of him and to pray to his Master to put more good in him.”
