would anyone even notice?

"'Edith, I wonder what would happen to most churches and Christian work if we awakened tomorrow, and everything concerning the reality and work of the Holy Spirit, and everything concerning prayer, were removed from the Bible.
I don't mean just ignored, but actually cut out -- disappeared.
I wonder how much difference it would make?'
We concluded it would not make much difference in many board meetings, committee meetings, decisions and activities."

Quoted from Edith Schaeffer, The Tapestry, page 356

may we be guarded from doing the work of God without the Word of God and the
reality of God deeply embedded into all we are and what we do.
