Everything in Christianity is some kind of anticipation of something that is to be at the end of the world. If the Apostles were to preach by their Master's command, "that the kingdom of God drew nigh;" the meaning was, that from henceforth all men should fix their eyes on that happy time, foretold by the Prophets, when the Messiah should come and restore all things; that by renouncing their worldly conversation, and submitting to the gospel institution, they should fit themselves for, hasten, that blessing.
Hapa sisemi kwamba kila mchungaji anayehusika na mfumo huu ni mwovu, au sio wa kiroho! Kwa hakika inaweza ikatokea mahala fulani katika kanisa jambo hili likazoeleka kwa muda mrefu hata ikawa ndiyo desturi ya kanisa hilo, lakini wao wenyewe wakawa ni wa kiroho. Hawachafui mamlaka hiyo au vyeo vyao kama wachungaji, wala hawazuilii mambo ambayo Mungu angeyafanya katika maisha ya watu. Wanashauri na kutoa maelekezo, yawezekana hata kuonya lakini hawatafuti kutawala maisha ya watu.
