The Mortification Of Indwelling Sin Remaining In Our Mortal Bodies, That It May Not Have Life And Power To Bring Forth The Works Or Deeds Of The Flesh Is The Constant Duty Of Believers.

When Sin Lets Us Alone We May Let Sin Alone; But As Sin Is Never Less Quiet Than When It Seems To Be Most Quiet, And Its Waters Are For The Most Part Deep When They Are Still, So Ought Our Contrivances Against It To Be Vigorous At All Times And In All Conditions, Even Where There Is Least Suspicion.

Faith, If It Be A Living Faith, Will Be A Working Faith.

Temptations And Occasions Put Nothing Into A Man, But Only Draw Out What Was In Him Before.

Our Great Pattern Hath Showed Us What Our Deportment Ought To Be In All Suggestions And Temptations. When The Devil Showed Him "all The Kingdoms Of The World And The Glory Of Them," To Tempt Him Withal, He Did Not Stand And Look Upon Them, Viewing Their Glory, And Pondering Their Empire.... But Instantly, Without Stay, He Cries, "get Thee Hence, Satan." Meet Thy Temptation In Its Entrance With Thoughts Of Faith Concerning Christ On The Cross; This Will Make It Sink Before Thee. Entertain No Parley, No Dispute With It, If Thou Wouldst Not Enter Into It.
