Instead of running after the interpretations of different men, let God interpret it to your soul. As Stephens said, Do not study it in the blue light of Presbyterianism, or the red light of Methodism, or the violet light of Episcopalianism, but study it in the light of Calvary. One man says, ‘I am a Romanist, and it has got to teach what Romanism teaches;’ another says, ‘I am a Protestant, and it has got to teach me what Protestantism teaches.’ Take it up independent of these, and after you have dug its meaning out for yourself it will be so much sweeter to you.” —Pastor Dwight L. Moody
