to feel that they need something more than they
[have] got. Brethren, we want light, precious light
from the throne of God; and in the place of
quibbling, and in the place of fastening upon hooks
that you can hang your doubts upon, for Christ's
sake go to your knees in prayer; for Christ's sake
see the error and mistake of the Jews; because
Christ has said, "Light has come, and ye choose
darkness rather than light." [See John 3:19.] Now,
this can be done right where light is shining. You
meet men who say, Beware, beware; we must go
careful; we must be very careful to press out the
darkness, and let the light come in.
Brethren, we want to come right up as a man
and obtain a living experience here in this meeting.
You want light enough that you can carry it with
you into eternity. That is what you want. We have
not half faith enough. We are only just beginning
to learn as little children. The child first takes a
step, and falls; and then takes another step, and
finally learns how to walk. Now, we want to learn
how to exercise faith.
