SPIRITUAL PROGRESS · VERIFIED QUOTE
John Angel James Quote
“  ​ What is it to make progress in religion? Progress is not only action but moving onward. A door turning upon its hinges is in a state of motion, but it never advances. A chariot moving upon wheels is not only in motion, but goes onward. The conduct of some persons in religion resembles the former—there is action, but no advancement; they move, but it is on hinges, not on wheels.”
