Richard Baxter
the difference betwixt angels and devils
"Look but to the state
and torment of the damned, and think well of the difference betwixt angels
and devils, and you may know what sin is.—Angels are pure; devils are
polluted: holiness and sin do make the difference. Sin dwells in hell,
and holiness in heaven. Remember that every temptation is from the devil,
to make you like himself; as every holy motion is from Christ, to mike
you like himself. Remember when you sin, that you are learning and imitating
of the devil, and are so far like him, John 8:44. And the end of all is,
that you may feel his pains. If hell-fire be not good, then sin is not
good."
