19. The Recorder is conscience, by which we judge of an action as good or bad, according to the light we enjoy, whether by the law of nature or by the written law. Conscience records our actions; and, in the day of judgment, the book of conscience is one of those which shall be opened.— Burder. 20. Satan may tempt, but cannot force the soul to sin (James 1:14); we are therefore commanded to resist the devil, that he may flee from us. To destroy this resistance, therefore, must be a great point with the enemy.— Burder. 21. The artful speech of Diabolus is founded upon the scriptural account of the first temptation. 'Ye shall not surely die,’ said the father of lies, and he still persists in it. God says, Sinner, thou shalt die; Satan says, Thou shalt not die. Which of these ought we to believe?— Burder. 22. 'That HE.’ According to Tyrwhitt, p. 113, HE was prefixed to proper names by the Saxons emphatically. Shakespeare thus uses it: 'I stand to answer thee, or any he the proudest of thy sort.’ Bunyan uses it as a mark of contempt. A modern author would say, 'That fellow, Mr. Illpause.’— Ed. 23. Resistance failed in our first mother. She paused, and it was an Ill-pause; whatever contradicts God’s Word should be instantly resisted as diabolical.— Burder. 24. The most imminent danger to the soul is when Satan finds a death-like, quiet, teachable auditory. So it was when Whitfield and Wesley, on their godlike mission, roused the people; who, to a frightful extent, were slumbering on the brink of eternal torments.— Ed. 25. Beware of flattery and hypocrisy, especially of that cunning craftiness of false teachers whereby they lie in wait to deceive unwary souls, and keep them in darkness. The white devil that elates the sinner with vain confidence, is much more dangerous than the black one who instigates to lust, profaneness, and despair.— Mason. 26. The breath of temptations, entertained for a moment, admits unbelief, and destroys primitive innocence. In a spiritual sense, man died; and, by 21
the offence of one, judgment came upon all to condemnation (Rev 5:18).— Burder. 27. Then peace expired, And every grace fell slaughter’d round her tomb.— Swain’s Redemption. 28. Her rash hand, in evil hour, Forth reaching to the fruit, she pluck’d, she ate: Earth felt the wound, and nature, from her seat, Sighing through all her works, gave signs of woe, That all was lost.—Paradise Lost, B. ix. 22
