Be Killing Sin Or It Will Be

There Is No Broader Way To Apostasy Than To Reject God's Sovereignty In All Things Concerning The Revelation Of Himself And Our Obedience.

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.

Let No Man Think To Kill Sin With Few, Easy, Or Gentle Strokes. He Who Hath Once Smitten A Serpent, If He Follow Not On His Blow Until It Be Slain, May Repent That Ever He Began The Quarrel. And So He Who Undertakes To Deal With Sin, And Pursues It Not Constantly To The Death.

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.

Christ Is Our Best Friend, And Ere Long Will Be Our Only Friend. I Pray God With All My Heart That I May Be Weary Of Everything Else But Converse And Communion With Him.
