CHAPTER IX--CAPTAIN ANYTHING
9/18

The words are the words of Anything, but the heart behind the words is the heart of Paul.

And this, again, teaches us that we should be like the Messiah in this also, not to judge after the sight of our eyes, nor to reprove after the hearing of our ears.

Miserable Anything! outcast alike of heaven and hell! But, O noble and blessed Apostle! the man, says Thomas Goodwin, who shall be found seated next to Jesus Christ Himself in the kingdom of God.
