Think you’re perfect?
Dear Friends,
Some years ago I was shocked to hear a Christian leader claim that he had not sinned in the last three years. And yet two days before I had heard him being sharp with his wife! Today’s devotional would have helped him and can help deliver you from his blindness. God bless you.
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
James 4:10 (ESV)
10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
“This is not the land of perfection. Some persons dream of it; their pretensions are but a dream. We have heard some say that they were perfect, but they were not perfect in the virtue of humility, or they would not have boasted after so vainglorious a fashion.” [Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit LII, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1906), p. 30]
