Matthew 12:36 But I say to you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. Just as it can be shown in nature that the law of gravitation in a drop of water is the same law which binds the planets in their courses in the distant heavens, and the same law which reigns through the whole universe of matter; so the law which binds goodness to goodness, or which draws evil to evil, in the instinctive feeling that they are in themselves one, is a law which holds good in the visible and invisible worlds. The powers of evil — so far as they know one another — are all under one great power, and they will not conspire consciously against themselves. (A. Watson, D. D.)
