God is the Grand Teacher
God is the grand teacher. This is the reason the word preached works so differently upon men: two in a pew — the one is wrought upon effectually, the other lies at the ordinances as a dead child at the breast and gets no nourishment. What is the reason? Because the heavenly gale of the Spirit blows upon one and not upon the other. One has the anointing of God, which teaches him all things (1 John 2:27); the other has it not. God’s Spirit speaks sweetly and often irresistibly.
