A Man May Be Carried On In

The House Built On The Sand May Oftentimes Be Built Higher, Have More Fair Parapets And Battlements, Windows And Ornaments, Than That Which Is Built Upon The Rock; Yet All Gifts And Privileges Equal Not One Grace.

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.

Sin Will Be Always Acting, If We Be Not Always Mortifying, We Are Lost Creatures.

Men Think All Things Would Be Very Glorious If They Might Be Done According To Their Mind. Perhaps, Indeed, They Would-but With Their Glory, Not The Glory Of God.

Free Will Is "corrupted Nature's Deformed Darling, The Pallas Or Beloved Self-conception Of Darkened Minds"
