Spurgeon's Call

"Reformations have not been wrought by men of lukewarm spirit and temporising policy. One fiery Luther is of more value than twenty like the half hearted Erasmus. who knew infinitely more than he felt, and perhaps felt more then he dared to express. A man if he would do anything for God, for the truth, for the cross, must set his face and with the whole force of his will resolve to serve his God. The soldier of Christ must set his face like a flint against all opposition, and at the same moment set his face towards the lord with the attentive eye of the handmaiden looking towards her mistress."
