McCheyne on II Corinthians 5:14: The Heart of the Hypocrite
"For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died."
Robert Murray McCheyne was a minister of the Church of Scotland in the early XIXth Century.
"We have so choked up the avenues of self-examination - there are so many turnings and windings before we can arrive at the true motives of our actions - that our dread and hatred of God, which first moved man to sin, and which are still the grand impelling forces whereby Satan goads on the children of disobedience - these are wholly concealed from our view, and you cannot persuade a natural man that they are really there."
