He desires rather that you serve Him faithfully in silence, your minds fixed always on His will.

And you do not understand the nature of your own ills; you are like the dying man who says: 'I am well!' Perhaps some one of you is thinking at this moment.

'If I do not understand that I am doing wrong, then God will not condemn me.' But the Lord does not judge as do the judges of this world.
He who takes poison unwittingly must fall, as he who takes it wittingly must fall.

He who is without the white robe may not come to the Lord's supper, though he be not aware the robe is necessary.

He who loves himself above all things, be he ignorant of conscious of his sin, cannot pass through the gate of the kingdom of Heaven; as the bride's finger, if it be doubled up, cannot pass through the ring the bridegroom offers.
Know the infirmities of your souls, and pray with faith to be freed from them.
