The Marvellous in Modern Times Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Marvellous in Modern Times

On the other hand, it is not unchristian to believe in the continuance of apostolic gifts. Dr. Bushnell has well said,* on this subject, there are yet, in every age, great numbers of godly souls, and especially in the lower ranges of life, to whom the conventionalities of Opinion are noth ing, and the walk with God every thing, who dare to claim an open state with Him; to pray with the same expecta tion, and to speak of faith in the same manner, as if they had lived in the apostolic times. And they are not the noisy, violent class, who delight in the bodily exercises that profit little, mistaking the fumes of passion for the revelations of God, but they are, for the most part, such as walk in silence, and dwell in the shades of obscurity.
