“No public man in these islands ever believes that the Bible means what it says: he is always convinced that it says what he means”

“No man ever believes that the Bible means what it says: He is always convinced that it says what he means.”

“I chose this guy because he always says what he means and means what he says. -Twivortiare-”

“If he [Pound] is not careful he will take to meaning what he says instead of saying what he means.”

“There is no excuse for anyone to misunderstand God's Word if he will, like a child, accept the Bible for what it says, and be honest enough to consecrate himself to obey it. He must accept the Bible as God's Word. He must believe that God could not be honest if He sought to hide from man the very things He will judge him by in the end. He must accept the Bible as the final Court of Appeal on its own subjects, and forget man's interpretations and distortion of the Word. He must believe that God knows what He is talking about; that He knows how to express Himself in human language; that He said what He meant, and meant what He said; and that what He says on a subject is more important than what any man may say about it.”

“A man who doesn't say what he means or do what he says, craves attention and misuses it when he gets it, doesn't share what he knows and earns,deserves death.”
