The Pretended Desires Of Many To Behold

Assurance Encourateth Us In Our Combat; It Delivers Us Not From It. We May Have Peace With God When We Have Done From The Assaults Of Satan.

He Who Prays As He Ought Will Endeavor To Live As He Prays.

He Who Finds Not Opposition From Sin, And Who Sets Not Himself In Every Particular To Its Mortification, Is At Peace With It, Not Dying To It.

The Growth Of Trees And Plants Takes Place So Slowly That It Is Not Easily Seen. Daily We Notice Little Change. But, In Course Of Time, We See That A Great Change Has Taken Place. So It Is With Grace. Sanctification Is A Progressive, Lifelong Work (prov 4:18). It Is An Amazing Work Of God's Grace And It Is A Work To Be Prayed For (rom 8:27).

Spiritual Wisdom Consists In Finding Out The Subtleties, Policies, And Depths Of Any Indwelling Sin... To Trace This Serpent In All Its Turnings And Windings; Be Able To Say, At Its Most Secret Actings, 'this Is Your Old Way And Course; I Know What You Aim At.'
