Psalm 10:6 He has said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity. Carnal security opens the door for all impiety to enter into the soul. Pompey, when he had in vain assaulted a city and could not take it by: force, devised this stratagem in way of agreement; he told them he would leave the siege and make peace with them, upon condition that they would let in a few weak, sick, and wounded soldiers among them to be cured. They let in the soldiers, and when the city was secure the soldiers let in Pompey's army. A carnal settled security will let in a whole army of lusts into the soul. (Thomas Brooks.)
