Joy and Comfort Ruined by Doubt
Luke 4:3
And the devil said to him, If you be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread.


Hope, joy, peace, thankfulness, repentance, obedience, prayer, patience, worship — all these will vanish away like a morning mist before the sun if the devil can make you distrust with such a temptation as this, "If thou," &c.

(Bishop Hacket.)
