John Newton, Charles Simeon and William Wilberforce suffered lifelong opposition and endured it for the causes of gospel truth, missionary zeal and political justice. They found, in solid doctrine and humble joy, the tough roots for habitual tenderness in response to their adversaries - without doctrinal or moral flinching. They are examples of remarkable grace.
