The Christian, Like A Chalice Without A

For A Beggar To Live At Court Is Not So Much As The King To Dwell With Him In His Cottage.

Truly, Hope Is The Saint's Covering, Wherein He Wraps Himself, When He Lays His Body Down To Sleep In The Grave: "my Flesh," Saith David, "shall Rest In Hope."

Indeed All The Saints Are Taught The Same Lesson - To Renounce Their Own Strength, And Rely On The Power Of God; Their Own Policy, And Cast Themselves On The Wisdom Of God; Their Own Righteousness, And Expect All From The Pure Mercy Of God In Christ, Which Act Of Faith Is So Pleasing To God, That Such A Soul Shall Never Be Ashamed.

Therefore Tremble, O Man, At Any Power Thou Hast, Except Thou Usest It For God. Art Thou Strong In Body; Who Hath Thy Strength? God, Or Thy Lusts?

The Longer A Soul Hath Neglected Duty, The More Ado There Is To Get It Taken Up.
