(J.C. Ryle, "Holiness, Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties, and Roots")
Let us never forget that truth, distorted and exaggerated--can become the mother of the most dangerous heresies!
We should dread unscriptural Protestant traditions--as much as the traditions of the Church of Rome!

Reflection
Never doubt, O people of the Lord, the veracity of His word for it bears His own mark and will ever reveal His plan for your redemption. Every assurance is granted you in His word and can be relied upon without fail! Rejoice in His abounding grace and unceasing truth! He is the way. He is the truth. He is your life. And He is your very soul's blood! Rejoice in Him! Sing, "Hallelujah!" and praise His name forever!
