Quote by Joanna Southcott
If they can prove that I am wrong by that time, I will give it up

If they can prove that I am wrong by that time, I will give it up to their wisdom, but not after to any ones judgment, till I see the end of another year for the Lord will begin with a new century and I will see what he will do, before I will hearken to any mans judgment. – Joanna Southcott
