To come with the inticing words of mans wisedome, and to preach only themselves is the note of false Teachers: the charge of Christs Minister is in demonstration of the spirit and of power to divide the word of truth aright unto his people...Gods oracles are to be faithfully expounded, not curiously minced, not loosly dallied with, and surely the plaine song of Scripture is the best musicke without these quavering descants of mans wit.
Christopher Potter, editor, Lectures on the Whole Epistle of St. Paul to the Philippians, 1618
