Plain Preaching

"Bernard, preaching one day very scholastically, the learned thanked him, but not the godly; but when, another day, he preached plainly, the good people came blessing God for him, and gave him many thanks; which some scholars wondering at, "Ah,"said he, "yesterday I preached Bernard, but to-day I preached Christ. It is not learning, but teaching, not the wisdom of words, but the evidence and demonstration of the Spirit, that is welcome to saints."
