Quote by Michael A.G. Haykin

“To talk of improving upon our perfect Saviour is to insult him. He is God’s propitiation: what would you want more? . . . There is but one Saviour, and that one Saviour is the same forever. His doctrine is the same in every age and is not yea and nay. . . . What a strange result we should obtain in the general assembly of heaven if some were saved by the gospel of the first century, and others by the gospel of the second, and others by the gospel of the seventeenth, and others by the gospel of the nineteenth century! . . . We should need a different song of praise for the clients of these various periods, and the mingled chorus would be rather to the glory of man’s culture than to the praise of the one Lord. No such mottled heaven, and no such discordant song, shall ever be produced. . . . To eternal glory there is but one way; to walk therein we must hold fast to one truth, and be quickened by one life. We stand fast by the unaltered, unalterable, eternal name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Excerpted from Charles H. Spurgeon, “Holding Fast the Faith” (1888).”
