Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Soul's Conflict and Victory Over Itself by Faith There be two sorts of people always in the visible Church; one that Satan keeps under with false peace, whose life is nothing but a diversion to present con tentments, and a running away from God and their own hearts, which they know can speak no good unto them, these speak peace to themselves, but God speaks none. Such have nothing to do with this Scripture; the way for these men to enjoy comfort, is to be soundly troubled. True peace arises from knowing the worst first, and then our freedom from it. It is a miserable peace that ariseth from ignorance of evil. The angel troubled the waters, John V., and then cured those that stepped in. It is Christ's man ner to trouble our souls first, and then to come with healing in his wings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
