We Can Have No Power From Christ

It Is The Spirit Alone That Can Mortify Sin; He Is Promised To Do It, And All Other Means Without Him Are Empty And Vain. How Shall He, Then, Mortify Sin That Has Not The Spirit? A Man May Easier See Without Eyes, Speak Without A Tongue, Than Truly Mortify One Sin Without The Spirit.

Herein Would I Live; Herein Would I Die; Hereon Would I Dwell In My Thoughts And Affections; To The Withering And Consumption Of All The Painted Beauties Of This World, Unto The Crucifying All Things Here Below, Until They Become Unto Me A Dead And Deformed Thing, No Way Meet For Affectionate Embraces.

A Minister May Fill His Pews, His Communion Roll, The Mouths Of The Public, But What That Minister Is On His Knees In Secret Before God Almighty, That He Is And No More.

It Is Evident That You Contend Against Sin Merely Because Of How It Troubles You.

Unless Men See A Beauty And Delight In The Worship Of God, They Will Not Do It Willingly.
