Only What God Has Commanded In His

We All Profess That We Are Bound For Heaven, Immortality, And Glory: But Is It Any Evidence That We Really Design It If All Our Thoughts Are Consumed About The Trifles Of This World, Which We Must Leave Behind Us, And Have Only Occasional Thoughts Of Things Above?

There Is A State Of Perfect Peace With God To Be Attained Under Imperfect Obedience.

The Duties God Requires Of Us Are Not In Proportion To The Strength We Possess In Ourselves. Rather, They Are Proportional To The Resources Available To Us In Christ. We Do Not Have The Ability In Ourselves To Accomplish The Least Of God's Tasks. This Is The Law Of Grace. When We Recognize It Is Impossible For Us To Perform A Duty In Our Own Strength, We Will Discover The Secret Of Its Accomplishment.

For A Man Solemnly To Undertake The Interpretation Of Any Portion Of Scripture Without Invocation Of God, To Be Taught And Instructed By His Spirit, Is A High Provocation Of Him; Nor Shall I Expect The Discovery Of Truth From Any One Who Thus Proudly Engages In A Work So Much Beyond His Ability.

Consider That It Is Not Failing In This Or That Attempt To Come To Christ, But A Giving-over Of Your Endeavors, That Will Be Your Ruin.
