If A Man Teach Uprightly And Walk

To Say That We Are Able By Our Own Efforts To Think Good Thoughts Or Give God Spiritual Obedience Before We Are Spiritually Regenerate Is To Overthrow The Gospel And The Faith Of The Universal Church In All Ages.

All Other Ways Of Mortification Are Vain, All Helps Leave Us Helpless; It Must Be Done By The Spirit.

He Can Make The Dry Parched Ground Of My Soul To Become A Pool And My Thirsty Barren Heart As Springs Of Water. Yes He Can Make This Habitation Of Dragons This Heart Which Is So Full Of Abominable Lusts And Fiery Temptations To Be A Place Of Bounty And Fruitfulness Unto Himself

Indwelling Sin Always Abides Whilst We Are In This World; Therefore It Is Always To Be Mortified.

Whatever Vices And Corruptions Men See In The Lives Of Their Ministers Will Not Be Attributed To The Depravity Of Their Old Nature Which Still Abides In Them, But To The Gospel.
