Sin and Christ’s Cross

The following are excerpts from the Banner of Truth dating back to 1946:

I cannot commit sin, without setting my foot on the law of my Maker. I cannot gratify my lusts, but I must go over my bleeding Savior. Therefore, away, foul temper. I hate thee and thy motions. Lord, save or I perish.

No sin can be little because it is committed against the great God of heaven and earth. To commit little sins the sinner must first find a little God.

Well may God suffer thee to lose thy locks, when thou darest wilfully to lay thy head in the lap of temptation.

Oh, trembling believer, if Satan should at any time have thee to doubt of thy election, answer by telling him that he was never part of God’s eternal cabinet council.

Without the blood of Christ upon thy conscience, all thy services are dead.

The higher a bird flies the more out of danger he is; the higher a Christian soars above the world, the safer his comforts.

Welcome the cross of Christ, and bear it triumphantly, but see it be indeed Christ’s cross and not a cross of thy own making.
