If We Believe Not With Faith Divine

Now Nothing Can Prevent This But Mortification; That Withers The Root And Strikes At The Head Of Sin Every Hour, So That Whatever It Aims At It Is Crossed In.

The Growth Of Trees And Plants Takes Place So Slowly That It Is Not Easily Seen. Daily We Notice Little Change. But, In Course Of Time, We See That A Great Change Has Taken Place. So It Is With Grace. Sanctification Is A Progressive, Lifelong Work (prov 4:18). It Is An Amazing Work Of God's Grace And It Is A Work To Be Prayed For (rom 8:27).

To Kill Sin Is The Work Of Living Men; Where Men Are Dead (as All Unbelievers, The Best Of Them, Are Dead), Sin Is Alive, And Will Live.

The Root Of An Unmortified Course Is The Digestion Of Sin Without Bitterness In The Heart.

A Man May Easier See Without Eyes, Speak Without A Tongue, Than Truly Mortify One Sin Without The Spirit.
