"For GOD Did Not Call Us To Be Impure, But To Live A Holy Life!"

Windy profession and airy talk!
(John Bunyan)

"Let your light so shine before men, 

that they may see your good works 
and glorify your FATHER in Heaven!" 
Matthew 5:16

O soul, consider this deeply--

it is the life of a Christian which 
carries more conviction and persuasion 
than his words. Though, like an angel, 
you talk of CHRIST, of the gospel, of 
the doctrines of grace, and of Heaven--
yet, if you indulge devilish tempers, 
and live under the power of any 
sinful lusts and passions--
you will hereby harden others 
against the things of GOD and 
prevent their setting out 
in the ways of GOD. 

Study and pray to be a consistent 
walker in the ways of holiness; else, 
all is but windy profession and airy talk.

O how much harm is done to CHRIST'S cause--
by the unholy walk of many professors!

"For GOD did not call us to be impure, 

but to live a holy life!" 1 Thessalonians 4:7
