The believer needs not fear the fiery trial of afflictions and temptations, by which the Saviour refines his gold. He will separate their corruptions, which render their faculties worthless and useless. He will take away the dross found in them.

Christ came to distinguish men, to separate between the precious and the vile. No hypocrite or formalist can endure his doctrine, or stand before his tribunal. The Lord Jesus, prepares the sinner's heart to be his temple, by the ministry of his word and the convictions of his Spirit, and he enters it as the Messenger of peace and consolation.

He shall prepare the way before him, by calling men to repentance. Here is a prophecy of the appearing of John the Baptist.
