Isaiah 28:10 For precept must be on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, and there a little: Suppose you were walking from London to Brighton; well, as you go upon your way you meet with many fingerposts, or milestones, at distances not far apart, the fingerposts often at less than a mile apart; and they repeat the same thing — "To Brighton — To Brighton"; and the milestones, they say so many miles to Brighton or from Brighton. You do not feel angry at this; you do not say, "Why ever did they put up so many fingerposts, or so many milestones?" On the contrary, if you were in any doubt about the road, you would feel exceedingly thankful for such guides, and hardly think you could have too many. So God guides and warns. (Anon.)
