There is nothing holds up the Kingdom of sin, but Unbelief. If men would believe, the Kingdom of sin would totter and come down. But whiles men believe not, the hands of sin are strengthened, the kingdom of sin is held up in us.
There is nothing holds up the Kingdome of sin, but Unbelief. If men would beleeve, the Kingdome of sin would totter and come down. But whiles men beleeve not, the hands of sin are strengthened, the kingdome of sin is held up in us.
Sin goes to Unbelief for protection, and there it hath it. Unbelief will be a shield to keep off any blow that is given to sin.
Sin goes to Unbelief for protection, and there it hath it. Unbelief will bee a shield to keep off any blow that is given to sin.
Sin goes to Unbelief for security; and unbelief secures and warrants sin: sin dwelleth where unbelief keeps the house; sin sits down securely under the shadow of unbelief. Let curse and Hell be threatened against sin, yet unbelief will secure it. It makes but child's-play of all the threats of God. Sin keeps the house, and unbelief bars the door, and keeps out all that would endanger sin: It will secure it.
