Good morning!
This is the true explanation of sin not felt, --and sermons not believed, -- and good advice not followed, -- and the Gospel not embraced, --and the world not forsaken, --and the cross not taken up, --and self-will not mortified, --and evil habits not laid aside, --and the Bible seldom read, --and the knee never bent in prayer. Why is all this on every side? The answer is simple. Men are dead. (J. C. Ryle).
And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience --- among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath... (Ephesians 2:1-3).
