The resting in a certain degree of religion.  When they have so much as will save them, as they suppose, they look no further, and so show themselves short of true grace, which always sets men aspiring to perfection (Phil iii. 13; Prov. iv. 18).

Taken from, An Alarm to the Unconverted by Joseph Alleine pg. 50.

“A secret enmity against the strictness of religion.  Many moral persons, punctilious in their formal devotions, have yet a bitter enmity against strictness and zeal, and hate the life and power of religion.  They do not like this forwardness, nor that men should make such a stir in religion.  They condemn the strictness of religion as singularity, indiscretion, and intemperate zeal, and with them a zealous preacher or ferverent Christian is but a wild enthusiast.  These men do not love holiness as holiness (for then they would love the height of holiness), and therefore are undoubtedly rotten at heart, whatever good opinion they have themselves.”

I highly recomend this book to those who really want to know what true deep salvation is like.  Remember, this is written in the Puritan era.  It may be good to have a good dictionary and definately your Bible readily available. 

“Secret reserves in closing with Christ.  To forsake all for Christ, to hate father and mother, yea, a man’s own life for Him, ‘This is a hard saying’ (Lk. xiv. 26).  S0me will do much, but they will not have the religion that will save them.  They never come to be entirely devoted to Christ, nor to be fully resigned to Him.  They must have the sweet sin; they mean to do themselves no harm; they have secret exceptions for life, liberty, or estate.  Many take Christ thus, and never consider His self-denying terms, nor count the cost; and this error in the foundation mars all, and ruins them forever (Lk. xiv. 28-33).”  pg 48
