"Truth and power are related to each other, both as to order and importance, as cause is to" effect. Truth the cause, power the effect. But today Christians want power without truth; and while resorting to all sorts of contrivances to obtain the former, they neglect and despise the latter. The religious press is daily pouring forth articles and books on Paths to Power, Secret of Power, Talks on Power, etc , which, in the majority of cases, are nothing more than a mere relation of anecdotes from the writer's experience, and exhibit but little knowledge of God's revealed purposes."
