1589. One who is led by the Lord is blameless

Even though human beings are filthy, and contaminated by foulness, nevertheless, when led by the Lord they are blameless because whatever truth and good they think, speak, or do, is the Lord's, and whatever falsity and evil, the devil's. For when led by the Lord, they know they do nothing on their own power. 1748, 20 March.
