Some Christians complain greatly of their state and condition, thinking that no one is as dead, dull, or ignorant as themselves. They do not know whether they have any spark of heavenly life left in them. Some of them make weak and faint endeavors for a recovery, which as like the attempts of a man in a dream who seems to use great effort without any success. Some apply themselves to many duties. However, the general group of professors seems to be in a languishing condition.
