This Principle in Soul Winning

Now all men that angle, or catch fish by the hook and line, know that it is individual work. It is one at a time. And when men so work, they are the servants of the fish. No man can walk out in lordly boots, and with admirable fixtures, gold and silver on his line, and say to the trout, “Here I am, come up here.” No man can take what bait he chooses, and throw it in, and then with reason damn the fish because they do not bite.

In the preaching of the Gospel it is the business of every preacher to preach to every man and to all men. There is no great and there is no small before the coming of the sun. To the sun all things are small and all things are great, and they all alike receive beneficent power from it.—BEECHER.
