All Other Ways Of Mortification Are Vain,

Let Not That Man Think He Makes Any Progress In Holiness Who Walks Not Over The Bellies Of His Lusts. He Who Doth Not Kill Sin In This Way Takes No Steps Toward His Journey's End.

You Have Your Season, And You Have But Your Season; Neither Can You Lie Down In Peace, Until You Have Some Persuasion That Your Work As Well As Your Life Is At An End.

Steadfastness In Believing Doth Not Exclude All Temptations From Without. When We Say A Tree Is Firmly Rooted, We Do Not Say The Wind Never Blows Upon It.

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.

Indwelling Sin Always Abides Whilst We Are In This World; Therefore It Is Always To Be Mortified.
