Men-Pleasing the Source of Unfaithfulness
Galatians 1:10
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.


The soul that cannot entirely trust God, whether man be pleased or displeased, can never long be true to Him. for while you are eyeing men you are losing God and stabbing religion at the very heart.

(T. Manton.)
