“If then you ask assistance for the support of the spread of Christianity, urge no motives but Christian motives; employ no arguments but Christian arguments. “He that giveth, let him do it with simplicity.”—Rom. xii, 8. Let him do it simply because he ought to—and not partly because by doing it he can enjoy good company, and sit down to a sumptuous repast.”
Benjamin T. Roberts (1823-1893) Founder of Roberts Wesleyan College, in Fishers of Men (Rochester: G.L. Roberts, 1875) 250.
