"Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept
safe."(Proverbs 29:25)
The fear of man bringeth a snare - How often has this led weak men, though
sincere in their general character, to deny their God, and abjure his people!
See the case of Peter; and learn from this, O reader, that where the mighty have
been slain, thou wilt fall, unless thou call on the Strong for strength, and for
courage to use it. Be not ashamed of Jesus nor of his people, nor of his cross.
Glory in this, that thou knowest him, art joined to them, and art counted worthy
to bear it.
"We trust as we love, and we trust where we love; if you love Christ much surely you will trust Him much." (Thomas Brooks)
