A minister, having preached on the doctrine of original sin, was afterwards waited on by some persons who stated their objections to what he had advanced.

The good man expressed his satisfaction at their acknowledgment but, to show the absurdity of their opinions in denying a doctrine so plainly taught in Scripture, he asked them, "Did you ever see a tree growing without a root?" --J.
