“The bolder one becomes in Christ, the more humble one becomes in himself.”  Frans Bakker  (1919-1965)

“But when wants press, and I see not whence supplies should come, my faith in the promise shakes, and I, like murmuring Israel, cry, ‘He gave bread, and he give water also?’  O unbelieving heart!  When did his promises fail?  who ever trusted them and was ashamed?’  (John Flavel; 1628-1691)

“Living faith in a living and loving Saviour can do all things.”  William Garden Blaikie  (1820-1899)

“The existence of God is the greatest of mysteries.  Neither man nor angel can comprehend it.  There must be heights and depths in the Infinite that can never be measured by the finite.”  James Madison Pendleton  (1811-1891)

“The point of world history does not lie in people or earthly powers.  The decisions are not made on earth but in heaven, where Christ rules out of the power of His sacrifice.  The cross of Golgotha stands at the center of history.”  (T. Boersma)

“Is the great God perturbed or disturbed by the rebellion of His puny creatures?  No, indeed:  ‘He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh:  the Lord shall have them in derision”  Arthur W. Pink  (1886-1952)

“The more I understand of the character of God, as revealed in Scripture, the more shall I see that he must be sovereign, and the more shall I rejoice from my inmost heart that He is so.   It was God’s sovereign will that fixed the time of my birth.  It is the same will that has fixed the day of my death.  And was not the day of my conversion fixed as certainly by that same will?”  Horatius Bonar (1808-1889)

“Clear declaration of truth will not satisfy wicked and malicious men, but the more Christ and the light is held out to such, it is hated the more.”  George Hutcheson   (1615–1674)

“It is no wonder that angels admire these things and delight to look upon them; but it is strange that we do not so.  They view them steadfastly, and we neglect them: either we consider them not at all, or give them but a transient look, half an eye.  That which was the great business of the Prophets and Apostles, both for their own times, and to convey them to us, we regard not; and turn our eyes to foolish wandering thoughts, which angels are ashamed at.”  Robert Leighton  (1611-1684)

“If we open our mouths to God in prayer, he will fill them more and more with suitable petitions and arguments.  When we attempt to open the mouth, God will open it still wider.”  Benjamin Beddome  (1717-1795)
