Before The Work Of Grace

I Do Not Understand How A Man Can Be A True Believer, In Whom Sin Is Not The Greatest Burden, Sorrow And Trouble.

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.

A Minister May Fill His Pews, His Communion Roll, The Mouths Of The Public, But What That Minister Is On His Knees In Secret Before God Almighty, That He Is And No More.

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