Oh ! these are still their own, and not the Lord's; and gird themselves, and go whither, and do what they list! For which cause they are lean, barren, and unfruitful to God, and to their own souls; and worship him in the form only, and not the power of godliness; such must needs be weak in faith, ready to slip and start aside at every windy doctrine, or sensual temptation....
