Prudence, False
Acts 13:3-12
And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.…


James I once said of armour, that "it was an excellent invention, for it not only saved the life of the wearer, but it hindered him from doing harm to anybody else." Equally destructive to all usefulness is that excessive prudence upon which some professors pride themselves; not only do they escape all persecution, but they are never able to strike a blow, much less fight a battle, for the Lord Jesus.

(C. H. Spurgeon.)
