Self Delusion
Self, bewitched with self, and self performances, fondles the conceit, that man's meritoriousness, decked with Christ's merits , is the key of heaven . What is this , but to build an altar of human rubbish, with human tools and then add Christ thereto? This is the delusion , which , with christ on its front , stalks through the earth, and murders thjousands!This is the poison tree, beneath the shade of which,many lie down and dream that they make Christ their only hope , while the main weight of trust is hung on self!This is the fiend , which mocks the lost , by showing them too late that Christ extolled in name , is not Christ reigning in the heart. This is the foe , which often makes the faithful ministry a fruitless field. Law
