Excerpt from A Primer of the Christian Religion: Based on the Teaching of Jesus, Its Founder and Living Lord

To that voice the apostles gave heed, and regarded no other. To that voice they also have given heed who, in the long and weary struggle to realize the kingdom of heaven on the earth, have spoken words and done deeds that have scattered new light and given fresh courage to the hearts of men.

To that divine voice it is our duty to listen, and then boldly to live out and to speak out what we have heard. No man or body of men can listen to Jesus for us; we must listen for ourselves. No council of the dead Past or of the Present has a right to come between us and Jesus Christ and say that it has listened for us, and that thus or thus must we believe.

We owe it to Jesus that no voices of men, howsoever holy and learned, shall be allowed to drown or in the slightest degree confuse that clear voice of His, which will one day be heard in judgment as it is now heard in accents of divine grace.
