Knowledge and Responsibility

KNOWLEDGE and responsibility go together. According as we know or may know our duty, are we accountable to God for its faithful performance. It is in vain to plead the violence or the suddenness of temptation, as if that should excuse our neglect or diminish our guilt. God's grace is sufficient for our need. His wisdom, and power, and love are at our service, and all we need to do to secure help is to call on him. If God's commandment is exceeding broad, so is his grace. God's will is the measure of man's duty, and when that will is revealed, and all-sufficient grace is offered to us, our responsibility is complete.—Sel.
