Does some mere professor sneeringly enquire, “What, are we always to live to God’s glory, and are we to do nothing but what would glorify him? This is laying down very straight rules, and making the road to heaven very narrow indeed.” Do you think so, friend? Then I will tell you plainly my solemn suspicion about you,—I am persuaded that you do not know the Lord, for if you did, the way of holiness would be your delight, and you would not ask for licence to sin. I can understand your sinning, but I cannot understand your finding pleasure in it if you are a real Christian.
- C.H. Spurgeon
Snarky?
Malarkey!
Stated starkly
Right on the marky!
Love Spurgeon. Love his way with the language. Love the conviction the Lord brings from godly men who love Him more than they love me.
