Puritan Corner - Altering the relish of the soul

"That is spiritual knowledge which alters the relish of the soul; for
we must know there is a bitter opposition in our nature against all saving truths; especially, there is a contrariety between our nature and that doctrine which teaches us we must deny ourselves and be saved by another. The soul must relish before it can digest.
"
by Richard Sibbes (1577-1635)
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Luke 16:13
