The First And Principal Duty Of A

It Is One Thing To Fear God As Threatening, With A Holy Reverence, And Another To Be Afraid Of The Evil Threatened.

We Can Have No Power From Christ Unless We Live In A Persuasion That We Have None Of Our Own.

Sin Will Be Always Acting, If We Be Not Always Mortifying, We Are Lost Creatures.

Christ Is The Meat, The Bread, The Food Of Our Souls. Nothing Is In Him Of A Higher Spiritual Nourishment Than His Love, Which We Should Always Desire.

When We Realize A Constant Enemy Of The Soul Abides Within Us, What Diligence And Watchfulness We Should Have! How Woeful Is The Sloth And Negligence Then Of So Many Who Live Blind And Asleep To This Reality Of Sin. There Is An Exceeding Efficacy Nad Power In The Indwelling Sin Of Believers, For It Constantly Inclines Itself Towards Evil. We Need To Be Awake, Then, If Our Hearts Would Know The Ways Of God. Our Enemy Is Not Only Upon Us, As It Was With Samson, But It Is Also In Us.
