[b]A bull may be adorned with ribbons[/b](Thomas Watson, "A Plea for the Godly")"He saved usnot by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to His mercy." Titus 3:5A person may be adorned with many moral virtues, such as prudence, justice, and temperance; and may keep free from breaking penal statutes; and may notdash upon the rock of visible scandal. But under thefair leaves of moralitythe worm of unbelief may be hidden! A bull may be adorned with ribbons, and wear a garland on his headand yet go to the slaughter! Just so, many a person who had all his life been decked with moralityis now in hell-fire!
