Holiness is of God
By the same fruits you shall distinguish this voice of God from any delusion of the devil. That proud spirit cannot humble you before God. He neither can nor would soften your heart, and melt it first into earnest mourning after God, and then into a child's love. It is not the adversary of God and man that enables you to love your neighbor, or to put on meekness, gentleness, patience, temperance, and the whole armor of God.
He is not divided against himself, or a destroyer of sin, his own work. No. It is none but the Son of God who comes to destroy the works of the devil. As surely, therefore, as holiness is of God, and as sin is the work of the devil, so surely the witness you have in yourself is not of Satan, but of God.

13. By the same fruits shall you distinguish this voice of God, from any delusion of the devil. That proud spirit cannot humble thee before God. He neither can nor would soften thy heart, and melt it first into earnest mourning after God, and then into filial love. It is not the adversary of God and man, that enables thee to love thy neighbour; or to put on meekness, gentleness, patience, temperance, and the whole armour of God. He is not divided against himself, or a destroyer of sin, his own work. No; it is none but the Son of God who cometh to destroy the works of the devil. As surely therefore as holiness is of God, and as sin is the work of the devil, so surely the witness thou hast in thyself is not of Satan, but of God.
