Minor Doctrines

Some worthwhile thoughts here:
If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except precisely that little point which the world and the devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. Wherever the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved and to be steady on all the battlefield besides is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that one point.

They don't seem very worthwhile to me. But I don't have a lot of patience for sniping.

I wouldn't ask anyone to adopt the tone. I do think the point is absolutely worthwhile.

Maybe I can concede that.
