Excerpt from Stephen Grellet To those who believe that (so far as we know) the chief object of Eternal Love is man, and that for man's sake God raises up His chosen witnesses in every age, it will be readily admitted that Divine love was educating Etienne de Grellet for the place he was to fill in a time of trouble such as Europe had not previously known.
