“We must learn to draw a distinction between being tempted and sinning.  Thoughts will come to you and the devil may try to press you to think that because thoughts have entered your mind you have sinned.  Temptation, in and of itself, is not sin.”  (D. Martin Lloyd-Jones; 1899-1981)

“You may offer an excuse for unfaithfulness, but you can never give a reason for it.” (Unknown)

“Let not him, therefore, that lacks anything be ashamed before this throne of grace; let him ask of this giving God!   And it shall be given him! that is a positive declaration of a most certain thing.”  (James 1:5)  (Rudolf Stier; 1800-1862)

“Predestination holds that events come to pass because an infinitely wise, powerful, and holy God has so appointed them.”  (Loraine Boettner, 1901-1990)

“It is better to be the victim of slander than to be the author of it.”  (Charles H, Spurgeon, 1834-1892)

“There in nothing too minute for Christ’s care, and there is nothing too great for His power.”  (W. E. Best  1919-2007)

“Man’s word is vain and powerless, even though it proclaims the gospel.  It may be ever so persuasive and forceful, but it can never bring one soul out of darkness into the light; it is incapable to add even one member to the body of Christ.”  (Herman Hoeksema; 1888-1965)

“WE NEED ‘grace and truth’ to expel the demons of selfishness and falsehood, and there is only one Being in the universe that can supply our need, and that is Christ.  He is ‘full of grace and truth.’ Lord to whom shall we go?”  (David Thomas  1813-1894)

“The more you discover yourself to be a common sinner, the more you will realize God’s uncommon grace!  And the more deeply you despair of man, of yourself, the more simple and easy it will be to rest in Christ and in His work of salvation for you.”  (William R. Newell)

“It is He who said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive;’ who reminds us that life, like the wheat, yields fruit only by its own dying; who gave us the ideal of life by His own absolute self-oblivion.  We feel instinctively that this Gospel of Love is divine, and that we cannot withhold our homage from the only perfectly Unselfish Life ever seen on earth.” (Cunningham Geikie 1890)
