THE TIME OF MY DEPARTURE HAS COME, 6

I HAVE FOUGHT THE GOOD FIGHT, 7
“Due to original sin our nature is so deeply curved in on itself that it fails to realize that in its wicked, twisted and crooked way it seeks all things including God for itself.” --Martin Luther
“After the Fall, the mind of man shrank from its Primitive greatness and extensiveness to an exceeding domination and confoundedness. Therefore, man’s soul was under the Nobel principle of divine love whereby it was, as it were enlarged to the comprehension of all its fellow creatures but as soon as we sinned all this excellent and largeness of soul was gone and he shrank into a little point circumscribed and closely shut up within itself to the exclusion of others and now wholly governed by narrow selfish principles.”
--Jonathan Edwards
