Down to Earth But Heavenly Minded

p275 Dear F G Patterson, – I have no difficulty about printing more than writing, save that it takes the character of aggression; I have always refused it myself. My objection to the Baptist action is not that they act on their consciences as to it: I would not seek to hinder them; but they have a feverish activity and propaganda about it, which is not Christ. And clearer views so set one on Paul’s ground – that he was not sent to baptise – and sets it in the background, that we lose our intelligent place when we propagate it. See the note.
