“There is no doctrine more excellent in itself, or more necessary to be preached
and studied, than the doctrine of Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.

All other knowledge, how much soever it be magnified in the world, is, and ought
to be esteemed but dross, in comparison to the excellency of the knowledge of Jesus
Christ.”
