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

by J.C. Ryle

Faith told Moses that all this power and greatness was of the earth, worldly, a poor, vain, empty thing, frail, fleeting, and passing away. Moses saw by faith that there was no true greatness like that of serving God. God was the king, and Moses was the true nobleman who belonged to the family of God. It was better to be the lowest in heaven than the greatest in hell.
