Macintosh wrote : ''“Newton once referred to Johnson as the Patriarch of the Southern Hemisphere, and if that seems too grand a title for one so humble, it is well to remember that he it was who planted the Gospel in Australian Soil; that he did it alone for the first few years ; that he did it with virtually no support from either laymen in the colony or hierarchy at home; that he did it in the face of constant and at times almost overwhelming opposition; and that he did it in the meek , unassuming but a sensitive manner that is the true hallmark of saintliness.”''(The Reverend Richard Johnson by N. K. Macintosh P.24)
