Quotes by Andrew Fuller

1 quotation from Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), with the subject each one is filed under.

Sin is to be overcome, not so much by maintaining a direct opposition to it, as by cultivating opposite principles. Would you kill the weeds in your garden, plant it with good seed; if the ground be well occupied, there will be less need of the labor of the hoe. If a man wished to quench fire, he might fight it with his hands till he was burnt to death; the only way is to apply an opposite element.— filed under Sin
