For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. —Romans 8:6

“Israel’s watchmen are blind, they all lack knowledge; they are all mute dogs, they cannot bark; they lie around and dream, they love to sleep.” (Isaiah 56:10) How much better do we fare as spiritual watchmen?

Love, faith and zeal are the paragons of Christian virtue. But you may be surprised how these qualities untempered with discernment can be detrimental.
