The disciple of the truth needs no such weapons. He feels that in order to be successful, he must use only those means which God has appointed, and which He can bless. In conducting any enterprise, or effecting any work, instruments are neccessary implements adapted to the end designed. The work of the reformer is, in a great measure, a work of destruction. The work of Christ, the Great Reformer, was eminently a work of destruction.
