He Who Prays As He Ought Will

Consider That It Is Not Failing In This Or That Attempt To Come To Christ, But A Giving-over Of Your Endeavors, That Will Be Your Ruin.

The Scripture Abounds In Commands And Cautions For Our Utmost Diligence In Our Search And Inquiry As To Whether We Are Made Partakers Of Christ Or Not, Or Whether His Spirit Dwells In Us Or Not-which Argue Both The Difficulty Of Attaining An Assured Confidence Herein, As Also The Danger Of Our Being Mistaken, And Yet The Certainty Of A Good Issue Upon The Diligent And Regular Use Of Means To That Purpose.

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