J. C. RyleSunday morning, before we go to hear the Word of God preached...let us not rush into Godโs presence careless, reckless, and unprepared, as if it mattered not in what way such work was done. Let us carry with us faith, reverence, and prayer. If these three are our companions, we will hear with profit, and return with praise.
