The Preacher's Duty
Ezekiel 2:3-5
And he said to me, Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me…


Like as the fountain, though no man draw of it, doth still send forth his springs; or as a river, though no man drink of it, yet doth it keep his course, and flow nevertheless; even so it behoveth him that preacheth the word of God, to do what lieth in his power, though no man give any attentiveness, or have any care to follow the same.

(J. Spencer.)
