A Christian should put away all defense and make no attempt to excuse himself either in his own eyes or before the Lord.

Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who is above, and his true position will be exposed.

The only fear I have is to fear to get out of the will of God. Outside of the will of God, there's nothing I want, and in the will of God there's nothing I fear, for God has sworn to keep me in His will. If I'm out of his will that's another matter. But if I'm in His will, He's sworn to keep me.
