Sin Is Never Less Quiet

He That Is More Frequent In His Pulpit To His People Than He Is In His Closet For His People, Is But A Sorry Watchman.

Unless We Are Thoroughly Convinced That Without Christ We Are Under The Eternal Curse Of God, As The Worst Of His Enemies, We Shall Never Flee To Him For Refuge.

Not To Be Daily Mortifying Sin, Is To Sin Against The Goodness, Kindness, Wisdom, Grace, And Love Of God, Who Hath Furnished Us With A Principle Of Doing It.

Let Our Hearts Admit, “i Am Poor And Weak. Satan Is Too Subtle, Too Cunning, Too Powerful; He Watches Constantly For Advantages Over My Soul. The World Presses In Upon Me With All Sorts Of Pressures, Pleas, And Pretences. My Own Corruption Is Violent, Tumultuous, Enticing, And Entangling. As It Conceives Sin, It Wars Within Me And Against Me. Occasions And Opportunities For Temptation Are Innumerable. No Wonder I Do Not Know How Deeply Involved I Have Been With Sin. Therefore, On God Alone Will I Rely For My Keeping. I Will Continually Look To Him.

All That May Be Known Of God For Our Salvation, Especially His Wisdom, Love, Goodness, Grace And Mercy On Which The Life Of Our Souls Depends, Are Represented To Us In All Their Splendour In And Through Christ. No Wonder Then That Christ Is Glorious In The Eyes Of Believers!
