More Dreadful Than Hell!

The godly man has a deep sense of the evil of sin. He looks upon sin as the bitter root, from which springs all the woes and wars, all the sadness and sorrow, all the pains and pollution, all the misery and madness, and all the torment and terror to be found in God's universe! He regards sin as that abominable thing which God hates!

It is to him a loathsome object; and a subject fraught with all that is base, degrading, and horrible. He looks at sin as more dreadful than Hell! Indeed, he considers sin to be the evil of all evils and considers that nothing is evil in comparison with sin! He often thinks of sin as it has grieved God's heart, murdered God's only begotten Son, and vexed and resisted the Holy Spirit. 

O if he could be but free from sin! 

[James Smith] 

Romans 7:24 ... O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

Romans 12:9 ...  Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
