A hundred doctrines floating in the head

(J. C. Philpot)

By five minutes real communion with the Lord . . .
  we learn more,
  we know more,
  we receive more,
  we feel more, and
  we experience more
than by a thousand years of merely studying
the Scriptures, or using external forms, rites,
and ceremonies.
 
One truth written by the Spirit in the heart,
will bring forth more fruit in the life, than 
a hundred doctrines floating in the head.
