Psalm 26: 11. But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me.
Here is the lover of godliness entering his personal protest against the temptations of sin. He is a Nonconformist, and is ready to stand alone in his Nonconformity. Like a live fish, he swims against the stream. Our integrity is not absolute nor inherent, it is a work of God's grace in us, and is marred by human infirmity; we must, therefore, resort to Jesus redeeming blood and to the throne of mercy, confessing that though we are saints among men, we must still bow as sinners before God.
