enemies thy footstool? Are they not all ministering<br />

spirits, sent forth to minister unto them that shall be<br />

heirs of salvation?"<br />

The ministration of Christ is ever to be kept<br />

before the minds of the people; His efficiency is<br />

that to which they should ever be directed.<br />

Ministers in word <strong>and</strong> doctrine are not to seek in<br />

human wisdom to supply the necessities of these<br />

souls; they are not to direct <strong>and</strong> guide. By doing<br />

this, they educate the flock of God to depend on<br />

human beings who are liable to err. "If any man<br />

lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all<br />

men liberally, <strong>and</strong> upbraideth not; <strong>and</strong> it shall be<br />

given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing<br />

wavering." Here is marked out a straight path to the<br />

world's Redeemer, which every soul may take.<br />

Christ tasted death that every man might be<br />

partaker of the blessings of the gospel. Then let all,<br />

experienced <strong>and</strong> inexperienced, be directed to the<br />

source of all efficiency <strong>and</strong> power. Christ has<br />

promised to be our wisdom, our righteousness, our<br />

sanctification <strong>and</strong> redemption.<br />
