Cold-Hearted, Half-Devoted, Earthly-Minded
By Jared Waterbury The cold-hearted, half-devoted, earthly-minded
race of professing Christians are among the most miserable
beings on earth. They compromise with the world.
They are foremost in pleasures and in recreations. They are
undistinguished from the vain and trifling crowd, Over their
worldly-mindedness, their pride and hollow professions, thousands
stumble into perdition. They are a disgrace to the Christian
Church. They are a standing scandal upon
religion. They are a grief to the pious.
They are a laughingstock to the world. Such people claim they
know God, but they deny Him by the way they live. They are detestable
and disobedient, worthless for doing anything good. Titus 1.16
The man who says, I know him, but does not do what he commands,
is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 1 John 2.4
