Holiness: For the Will of God Is Your Sanctification – 1 Thessalonians 4:3 [Annotated, Updated]

by J.C. Ryle

Let your daily prayer be that of the disciples: Lord, Increase our faith (Luke 17:5). Watch jealously over your faith, if you have any. It is the stronghold of the Christian character on which the safety of the whole fortress depends. It is the point that Satan loves to attack. All lies at his mercy if faith is overthrown. If we love life, we must especially stand on our guard.
