Against Irreverent Inquiry

[py3ak]

Robert Rollock, on Colossians 1:19

And it were almes to ding thy teeth in thy throte, that curiously wilt goe and search out the reasons of all things in Christ, and why he did this and that, and suffered this or that. Maist thou not, vaine body, be content with this answere: It hath pleased the Father so?

 

[Tim]

Excellent quote. It may be difficult to discern at times, but there is indeed a line between reverent and irreverent inquiry.
