Book by Thomas Watson

Thomas Watson, a puritan, wrote a tremendous read on sin and repentance. Just a few notes from the book:
"Every step forward in sin is a step backward from God. The further one goes from the sun, the nearer he approaches to darkness. The further one goes from God, the nearer it approaches to misery".
"Sin first courts, and then it kills. It is first a fox and then a lion"

"It is one thing to be a terrified sinner and another to be a repenting sinner"

-The Doctrine of Repentance by Thomas Watson
