“The mighty God, without ceasing to be God, becomes man to redeem us.  Wonder of wonders!  The like to this never has been.  Let the greatest king become the meanest beggar–let the richest prince leave his palace for the vilest cell of a loathsome prison; it is as nothing to the act of Jesus, when He left heaven to put on Him the rags of our mortality.”  (Henry Law;1797-1844)

“Truth is always simpler to understand than the complex, deviating notions of teachers who endeavor to prove unfounded theories.”  (George H. Clement)

“Who among us does not blush for our errors—for our many endeavors to conceal what we have done, to appear better than we were, to seem to be pleasing God when we were pleasing ourselves, or to be aiming at God’s glory when we were really consulting for our own interests?”  William Garden Blaikie  (1820-1899)

“The gospel hath fuller evidence than if an angel spake from heaven, and is to be believed before, and against, any such angel.”  (John Brown  1784-1858)

“Thou understandest my thought afar off.  Afar off; before they are perfectly formed in my mind.  Thou knowest what my thoughts will be in such and such circumstances long before I know it, yea, from all eternity.”  (Matthew Poole  1624-1679)

“The Spirit doth not only show our disease, but also our cure; not only our sickness, but the physician; not only our sin, but a Saviour.”  (Benjamin Keach  1649-1704)

“Because a Christian sometimes stops short of the Cross in his spiritual conflicts, he fails to defeat the enemy and remains unfruitful and unhappy, until by some special intervention of the great Restorer, he is again brought, in spirit, to that place where God first met him, and welcomed him in Jesus in the fullness of forgiveness and of peace.  No intermediate experience, how truthful soever in its character, will meet his case  Arthur Pridham

“This is it which God expects of us, and where he desires to bring us, that seeing our own emptiness,  insufficiency and the impotency and disability of others to help us, we should in all humility fly to his mercy.”  (William Gouge 1575-1653)

“Oh! Let the redeemed cherish honorable thoughts of their present glory.  Be careful to clear it from the defilement and degradation of the world’s dust, and enjoy it in adoring praise to Him, who hath chosen thee to this so undeserved grace.”  Unknown

“When man is selfish he cannot but have a great deal of trouble and vexation, for if I regard myself, my ends are so narrow that a hundred things will come and jostle me, and I cannot have room in those narrow ends of my own.”  (Jeremiah Burroughs  1600-1646)
