We Know, On The Authority Of Moses,

Let A Man Be Endowed With Ten Virtues And Have But One Fault And The One Fault Will Eclipse And Darken All The Virtues.

This Is The Most Dangerous Trial Of All, When There Is No Trial And Every Thing Goes Well; For Then A Man Is Tempted To Forget God, To Become Too Bold And To Misuse Times Of Prosperity.

Singing Has Nothing To Do With The Affairs Of This World: It Is Not For The Law. Singers Are Merry, And Free From Sorrows And Cares.

If I Profess With Loudest Voice And Clearest Exposition Every Portion Of The Truth Of God Except That Little Point Which The World And The Devil Are At That Moment Attacking, I Am Not Confessing Christ, However Boldly I May Be Professing Christ. Where The Battle Rages, There The Loyalty Of The Soldier Is Proved, And To Be Steady On All The Battlefield Besides, Is Mere Flight And Disgrace If He Flinches At That Point.

We Need Not Invite The Devil To Our Table; He Is Too Ready To Come Without Being Asked. The Air All About Us Is Filled With Demons.
