There Is Enough Sin In

It Is Not The Mouth That Is The Main Thing To Be Looked At In Prayer, But Whether The Heart Is So Full Of Affection And Earnestness In Prayer With God, That It Is Impossible To Express Their Sense And Desire; For Then A Man Desires Indeed, When His Desires Are So Strong, Many, And Mighty, That All The Words, Tears, And Groans That Can Come From The Heart, Cannot Utter Them.

The Covetous Man Feareth Not God. This Also Is Plain From The Word Because It Setteth Covetousness And The Fear Of God In Direct Opposition. Men That Fear God Are Said To Hate Covetousness, Exod. Xviii. 21. Besides The Covetous Man Is Called An Idolater And Is Said To Have No Part In The Kingdom Of Christ And Of God, Col. Iii. 5. And Again; 'the Wicked Boasteth Of His Heart's Desire And Blesseth The Covetous Whom The Lord Abhorreth,' Psa. X. 3.

As I Walked Through The Wilderness Of This World, I Lighted On A Certain Place, Where Was A Den; And I Laid Me Down In That Place To Sleep: And As I Slept I Dreamed A Dream. I Dreamed, And Behold I Saw A Man Clothed With Rags, Standing In A Certain Place, With His Face From His Own House, A Book In His Hand, And A Great Burden Upon His Back. I Looked, And Saw Him Open The Book, And Read Therein; And As He Read, He Wept And Trembled: And Not Being Able Longer To Contain, He Brake Out With A Lamentable Cry; Saying, 'what Shall I Do?'

It Is Sad To See How The Most Of Men Neglect Their Precious Souls, Turning Their Backs Upon The Glorious Gospel, And Little Minding A Crucified Jesus, When, In The Meanwhile, Their Bodies Are Well Provided For, Their Estates Much Regarded, And The Things Of This Present Life Are Highly Prized, As If The Darling Was Of Less Value Than A Clod Of Earth; An Immortal Soul, Than A Perishing Body; A Precious Saviour, Than Unsatisfying Creatures.

Words Easy To Be Understood Do Often Hit The Mark, When High And Learned Ones Do Only Pierce The Air.
