It is merely symbolic of the very comprehensiveness of their responsibilities that they have to deal with the problem of human inadequacy and unregeneracy in all its forms, that they cannot evade this problem by allowing only the good boys to attend school that they cannot even mitigate it by drawing too sharp a distinction between the good boys and the bad.
Stephan was a violent-tempered man, and now he let himself go. He spoke for some minutes, and it was lurid.

I conclude by calling attention to the comprehensiveness of Christ's authority. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost; Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
The full magnanimity of which reiteration can be perceived only when I inform you that I could easily deceive you, if I chose.
