Matthew 10:20 For it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaks in you. We know, too, that these intuitions, these flashes of prophecy should be corrected. We dig gold out of a vein, and we know that there is dross in it. Gold absolutely pure is seldom found anywhere; but we do not reject the ore if there is only ninety per cent. of gold in it. I think that men who buy dry mines, and spend good money on nothing at all, ought to be willing to take a mine that has ninety per cent. of pure metal in it. If it has fifty per cent. or forty per cent., or even twenty per cent., it is worth working: it more than pays expenses. (Beecher.)
