J H Jowett Quotes

‎"The real measure of our wealth is how much we should be worth if we lost all our money.

Dr. J. H. Jowett said, “Ministry that costs nothing accomplishes nothing.” If there is to be any blessing, there must be some “bleeding.

In W.H. Mallock’s satire "The New Republic,” a character representing Dr. Jowett is made to admit that an atheist opponent can disprove the existence of God, as he would define him. “All atheists can do that.” This does not, however, disturb the doctor’s faith. “For,” he says, “the world has at present no adequate definition of God; and I think we should be able to define a thing before we can satisfactorily disprove it." -A.J. Ayer
