Unquietness

Pacific Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association · Oakland, California · May 2, 1878

UNQUIETNESS is the greatest evil that can come to the soul, excepting sin. For as seditions and civil discords of a commonwealth ruin it entirely, and disable it to resist a stranger, so our heart, being troubled and disquieted in itself, loseth strength to maintain the virtues which it had gained, and with it the means to resist the temptations of the enemy, who, at that time, useth all kind of endeavors to fish in troubled waters.
