In 2 Cor. 10. there is a notable place to show what holds there are in the heart of man, that 1oppose against God, and his truth in his word, holds that Satan keeps in man, and man joining with Satan the Enemy, holds against God and his truth. The weapons of our warfare (saith he) are not carnal, but mighty through God, to cast down strong holds: The holds are within us, and we are so far from preparing our selves to Grace, and to entertain Grace when it is offered, that naturally we set up holds against God and Grace. There must be strong power to over-turn all, to lead them into captivity to the obedience of Christ; To cast down the imaginations, and every high thing, every high thought that exalts it self against the knowledge of God, and to bring in Captivity every thought. So there are three mighty things in 2every natural man.
