Think on this when sin comes with a smiling face towards you in the temptation. Oh think! If the human nature of Christ recoiled, when his cup of wrath was given him to drink; if he were sore amazed at it, how shall you, a poor worm, bear and grapple with it for ever? [John Flavel, Impure Lust, Pocket Puritans, Banner of Truth Trust, 2008., p.31]
