GODLY SORROW WORKETH REPENTANCE TO SALVATION not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.   –2 Corinthians 7:10-11 (KJV)

I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But HIS WORD WAS IN MINE HEART AS A BURNING FIRE SHUT UP IN MY BONES, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.   –Jeremiah 20:9 (KJV)

His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb DOGS, they cannot BARK; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber. –Isaiah 56:10 (KJV)   [The reverse implies that faithful preachers are like good sheepdogs that bark about sin and Hell to warn of danger.]

After my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I CEASED NOT TO WARN EVERY ONE NIGHT AND DAY WITH TEARS. –Acts 20:29-31 (KJV)
