If You Release Me Today, I'll Preach

He That Comes To Christ Cannot, It Is True, Always Get On As Fast As He Would. Poor Coming Soul, Thou Art Like The Man That Would Ride Full Gallop Whose Horse Will Hardly Trot. Now The Desire Of His Mind Is Not To Be Judged Of By The Slow Pace Of The Dull Jade He Rides On, But By The Hitching And Kicking And Spurring As He Sits On His Back. Thy Flesh Is Like This Dull Jade, It Will Not Gallop After Christ, It Will Be Backward Though Thy Soul And Heaven Lie At Stake.

If Thou Hast Sinned, Lie Not Down Without Repentance; For The Want Of Repentance, After One Has Sinned, Makes The Heart Yet Harder And Harder.

Therefore, I Bind These Lies And Slanderous Accusations To My Person As An Ornament; It Belongs To My Christian Profession To Be Vilified, Slandered, Reproached And Reviled, And Since All This Is Nothing But That, As God And My Conscience Testify, I Rejoice In Being Reproached For Christ's Sake.

One Leak Will Sink A Ship: And One Sin Will Destroy A Sinner.

It Is Profitable For Christians To Be Often Calling To Mind The Very Beginnings Of Grace With Their Souls.
