Excerpt from History of the Second Presbyterian Church, Washington, Penn'a: As Delivered Before the Congregation on Sabbath July 9, 1876
In' the third place, God's blessing has been our success in the past, and must be our whole reliance in the future. Churches are often tempted to get up sensational services in order to meet their financial obligations. Such a course is sinful in itself, and usually an utter failure. Nothing in the way of church growth can be relied on except vital godliness and earnest work. To this end we ought to be studious of God's work, and so intelligent Christians, able to use the Bible in Christian work with effectiveness. With such ability to use Scripture, and constant prayer for and hourly dependence on God's blessing, the past will only be an assurance of future success. God's word is powerful, and His spirit irresistable; and they who go forth with the one in them and the other with them shall see wonders wrought for the Master.
