This man, w ith his splendid abilities and unwavering faith in th e Word o f Godr would command the atten tion and stir th e h earts of multitudes, and help to rally to th e old standard s thousands of people who are now under the spell of th e pro­ fessional pulpiteers and teachers whose little brains have been cracked and crazed w ith criticism of th e in e rran t Scriptures.
