From
this talk:
Still
others find it easier to bend their knees than their minds. Exciting
exploration is preferred to plodding implementation; speculation seems
more fun than consecration, and so is trying to soften the hard
doctrines instead of submitting to them. Worse still, by not obeying,
these few members lack real knowing. (See
John 7:17.) Lacking real knowing, they cannot
defend their faith and may become critics instead of defenders!
A
few of the latter end up in the self-reinforcing and self-congratulating
Hyde Park corner of the Church, which they provincially mistake for the
whole of the Church, as if London’s real Hyde Park corner were
Parliament, Whitehall, Buckingham Palace, and all of England combined!
