Against sin – Billy Sunday

Depend on God for everything – Jonathan Edwards
The work of a true convert is not done. He finds a great work to do and great wants to be supplied.

After a true conversion, the soul is increasingly aware of its own impotence and emptiness. It is still aware of its universal dependence on God for everything.
– Jonathan Edwards –
