Lord have mercy on those who have tasted the outward experiences of Christianity, and seem to have much that is real in our Christian life, but have not pressed on into this place of rest and of faith in Jesus Christ.
Lord have mercy on such who cling to the appearance and forms of godliness, yet refuse to cling to Christ alone, for these external evidences of Christianity are of no value to them.
Lord have mercy on such as cling to the appearances of Christianity, for if that is all they have, a time will come when these appearances will fail them, and then how much harder will it be for them to receive that which they have hardened their heart to.
Lord have mercy on such as cling to their self-invented forms of godliness and Christianity, for if they trust too long in the untrue, the unreal, the phony, there will come a day of desperation, when they will look for the true, and will they be able to find that which they have long rejected.
Lord have mercy on such as do not trust and believe in You, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
