"We should make this clear to believers from the very beginning of our missionary work: every believer is a messenger of God's Kingdom. The goal of missionaries should not be to build a "greenhouse plant" that is forever dependent on the mother church, but to cultivate a towering tree that can take root in the local soil and stand alone in the local climate."
"The Creator has its own principles and uses for all things. The purpose of investigating things is not merely to observe their physical beauty, but to trace their origins and deduce the unknown from the known, so that the principles of the world have nowhere to hide. This is the essence of true learning."
— D. J. Macgowan
