“If we will take Jesus, and Him, only, to be our Leader, there are a great many ways that we shall never go—and there are a great many things which are done by different sects of professing Christians which we shall not do, as we cannot see that Christ ever did anything of the sort! And if He did not, neither will we.

That is a good rule for all Christians which I saw in one of our Orphanage schoolrooms: ‘What would Jesus do?’ There cannot be a better guide than that for Believers, for our text is true with regard to Doctrine, ‘Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My Words shall not pass away.’

I am often said to be a very old-fashioned, narrow-minded sort of person and I have not the slightest objection to the accusation. I certainly am not new-fashioned and do not intend to be, for ‘the old is better’ and, in theology, there is nothing new that is true, and nothing true that is new!

The Truth of God is as old as the everlasting hills and to that I desire to keep even to the end, and I trust that you, also, will be of the same mind.”

- CH Spurgeon, “The Perpetuity Of The Gospel”.
