“In the saints, who are truly married to Jesus Christ, O what hankering after the first husband, how great the remains of a legal spirit, how hard it is for them to forget their father’s house… There is a disposition to deal with God, in the way of giving so much duty for so much grace and favour with God, in the best, that they have continually to strive with it.
- Thomas Boston, Under the Broken Covenant of Works (p. 267)
