Thought of the Day ~ 1 August, 2024 A.D.

"Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry ... " -Colossians 3:5 [KJV] "When it is no longer a duty to grow in grace, it is so not to mortify sin.  No man under heaven can at any time say that he is exempted from this command, nor on any pretense; and he who ceaseth from this duty lets go all endeavours after holiness.  And as for those who pretend unto an absolute perfection, they are of all persons living the most impudent, nor do they ever in this matter open their mouths but they give themselves the lie ..." -preacher John Owen
