The Evil Here Is
Matthew 6:33
But seek you first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you.


I. THE EVIL OF PUNISHMENT.

1. Afflictions.

2. Troubles.

3. Incumbrances and turmoils of life. Every day finds us enough to do. Every year brings us enough to suffer.

II. THE EVILS OF SIN.

1. Temptations and lapses.

2. Allurements.

3. Suggestions of Satan.

4. Enticements of the world.As if the load of cares each day lays upon our shoulders were not heavy enough, we ourselves do fetch in more grist, and heap more bags still upon ourselves, by bringing future cares upon us.

(T. Jackson, B. A.)
