The angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And now, you will conceive in your womb and bea...r a son, and you will name him Jesus.

And I profess still, that whatsoever the church of England (the church, I say, not every doctor) shall forbid me to say in matter ...of faith, I shall abstain from saying it, excepting this point, that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for my sins.

It is the consequence of this institution that not a school- house, a public pew, a bridge, a pound, a mill-dam, hath been set up,... or pulled down, or altered, or bought, or sold, without the whole population of this town having a voice in the affair. A general contentment is the result. And the people truly feel that they are lords of the soil. In every winding road, in every stone fence, in the smokes of the poor-house chimney, in the clock on the church, they read their own power, and consider, at leisure, the wisdom and error of their judgments.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Skepticism is unbelief in cause and effect. A man does not see, that, as he eats, so he thinks: as he deals, so he is, and so he a...ppears; he does not see that his son is the son of his thoughts and of his actions; that fortunes are not exceptions but fruits; that relation and connection are not somewhere and sometimes, but everywhere and always; no miscellany, no exemption, no anomaly,--but method, and an even web; and what comes out, that was put in.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
