It Is One Thing To Know A

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.

What Is Jordan That I Should Wash In It? What Is The Preaching That I Should Attend On It, While I Hear Nothing But What I Knew Before? What Are These Beggarly Elements Of Water, Bread, And Wine? Are Not These The Reasonings Of A Soul That Forgets Who Appoints The Means Of Grace?

Oh, It Is Sad For A Poor Christian To Stand At The Door Of The Promise, In The Dark Night Of Affliction, Afraid To Draw The Latch, Whereas He Should Then Come Boldly For Shelter As A Child Into His Father's House.

We Must Come To Good Works By Faith, And Not To Faith By Good Works.

The Christian Must Trust In A Withdrawing God.
