Morality is a neat cover for for foul
venom, but it does not alter the fact
that the heart is vile, and the man
himself is under damnation. Men
will be damned with good works as
well as without them, if they make
them their confidence.
You may go to hell as well dressed in
the garnishings of morality as in the
'rags of immorality'. It is still the old
nature- wash it, and cleanse it, and
bind it, and curb it, and bridle it- it is
still the old fallen nature, and cannot
understand spiritual things.
(Spurgeon)
