Do not be over-righteous!" Ecclesiastes 7:16
How can this be? Can any man be over-righteous?
When zeal oversteps discretion;
when tasks are self-imposed;
when religious forms are trusted in;
when flesh is vainly mortified--
all this is being over-righteous!
God's people unwittingly fall into these very errors
James 1:5, Luke 12:16-21, Ecclesiastes 1:2-5, 1 Kings 3:10-13
