We Are Never Nearer Christ Than When

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.

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.

Christ So Loves His People That He Sings With Joy Over Them.

The Pretended Desires Of Many To Behold The Glory Of Christ In Heaven, Who Have No View Of It By Faith While They Are Here In This World, Are Nothing But Self-deceiving Imaginations.

Mortification From A Self-strength, Carried On By Ways Of Self-invention, Unto The End Of A Self-righteousness, Is The Soul And Substance Of All False Religion In The World.
