John 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. Dr. Taylor, of Norwich, once said to me, "Sir, I have collated every word in the Hebrew Scriptures seventeen times: and it is very strange if the doctrine of the atonement you hold should not have been found by me." I am not surprised at this. I once went to light my candle with the extinguisher on it. Now, prejudice from education, learning, etc., often proves an extinguisher. It is not enough that you bring the candle: you must remove the extinguisher.
