While the Lord's people are not earnest to assemble, the vain will assemble, and their conversation will be trifling. The children of this world are, in their generation, wiser than the children of light. But, Reader, it is not among the vain and the carnal that we find vain conversation only. Alas! as our Lord foretold concerning the latter days, so we find it; because iniquity abounds, the love of many is waxen cold. Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon!

3 The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proudb things:
4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
