“This faith in Christ, by which men become partakers of all the acquired benefits of Jesus Christ, is neither an uncertain opinion nor merely a bare confession of the mouth, but a firm and sure confidence of the heart, which doubts not the things promised by God in Christ; but has a firm assurance that He who has promised them is able also to perform them.”  The Amsterdam Confession  (September, 1627)

“Whatever my case may be, however burdened with a sense of guilt and defilement, that should not keep me away from the throne of grace, neither should it deter me from giving thanks for Jesus Christ and God’s provision of Him.”  Arthur W. Pink  (1886-1952)

Proved by the Father and having faith rigorously exercised is not pleasant.  It will always expose what is erroneous and lacking, while purging and strengthening what is genuine and acceptable with God.  The word appears gloriously precious until we are tried by its promise.  (Psalms 105:19) (No name given)
