I have wished, among other improvements in Theological Studies, a professorship of Common Sense and Prudence was established in our Seminaries. I really have known so many ruinous Errors in practice, among our pious and zealous ministers, for want of this celestial quality, that I am sure it is of more importance than is generally believed.

Elias Boudinot, letter to Edward Griffin, October 24, 1809

Most of the old objections to Revelation are done away, by the exact fulfilment of events in these latter days, foretold in the prophetic declarations of the Scriptures. The testimony is still increasing, and the truth of prophesy is manifesting every day. As miracles, at the first commencement of Christianity, so the precise accomplishments of prophesy in these latter ages of it, confirms its truth and certainty, beyond rational objection and doubt.

Elias Boudinot, The Second Advent, 1815

So it should have happened a hundred years ago, eh? Why the delay?

I know that it is a favourite observation with many, that Husband and Wife are equal and there should be no superiority. This is not true, but a dangerous Error, from whence many disagreeable Consequences flow.

Elias Boudinot, letter to Susan Bradford, December, 1784

I'm not agreeing with it. He's the one who said it.
