No Mere Nominal Representative

"As in Algebra it is not the ipsa corpora of quantity, but with its mere nominal representatives that we have to do--so it has been, but ought not to be, with theology. My God, let the reality of Thee as my Creator come to me not in word only but in power. And O may Thy Spirit, who caused this world of beauty and order emerge from chaos, operate with like effect on my dark and turbid and ruined soul." --Thomas Chalmers
