(J. C. Philpot, "Getting and Losing" 1846)
"The human heart is most deceitful and
desperately wicked! Who really knows
how bad it is?" Jeremiah 17:9
Without a knowledge of the corruptions
and abounding evils of our deceitful and
desperately wicked heart . . .
unbelief,
infidelity,
pride,
hypocrisy,
worldly mindedness,
carnality,
sensuality,
selfishness;
there will be . . .
no humility,
no self loathing,
no dread of falling,
no desire to be kept,
no knowledge of the super-aboundings
of grace, over the aboundings of sin.
