“Without holiness power becomes tyranny, omniscience craft, justice revenge and cruelty, and even the amiable attribute of goodness loses its charms and degenerates into a blind promiscuous prodigality or foolish undiscerning fondness; but when these perfections are clothed in the beauties of holiness, how god-like, how majestic, how lovely and attractive do they appear!”
-Samuel Davies, 1766
