Unless Men See A Beauty And Delight

The Most Tremendous Judgment Of God In This World Is The Hardening Of The Hearts Of Men.

The Vigour, And Power, And Comfort Of Our Spiritual Life Depends On The Mortification Of The Deeds Of The Flesh...the Choicest Believers, Who Are Assuredly Freed From The Condemning Power Of Sin, Ought Yet To Make It Their Business All Their Days To Mortify The Indwelling Power Of Sin...do You Mortify; Do You Make It Your Daily Work; Be Always At It Whilst You Live; Cease Not A Day From This Work; Be Killing Sin Or It Will Be Killing You.

It Being Our Duty To Mortify... We Must Be At Work. He That Is Appointed To Kill An Enemy, If He Leave Striking Before The Other Ceases Living, Does But Half His Work.

We Speak Much Of God, Can Talk Of Him, His Ways, His Works, His Counsels, All The Day Long; The Truth Is, We Know Very Little Of Him.

For A Man Solemnly To Undertake The Interpretation Of Any Portion Of Scripture Without Invocation Of God, To Be Taught And Instructed By His Spirit, Is A High Provocation Of Him; Nor Shall I Expect The Discovery Of Truth From Any One Who Thus Proudly Engages In A Work So Much Beyond His Ability.
