“If the imputation of Adams’s sin and of Christ’s righteousness be doctrines contained in the word of God, commentaries that labor to expel them from that word must be grossly pestiferous books, which no Christian ought to recommend, but which, on the contrary, to the utmost of his power, it is his duty to oppose. Robert Haldane (1772–1854)

“As to its duration, it is to eternity; “having loved his own, which were in the world, he loved them unto the end,” John 13:1; his love is invariable, unalterable, and unchangeable: it is like himself, “the same yesterday, to-day, and for ever;” all the waters of sin and corruption cannot extinguish it; nor can any creature in heaven, earth, or hell, separate his people from it. John Gill (1697-1771)

“So the authority to preach the gospel is an unmerited privilege, and is so confessed by Paul himself. Eph. 3:8. No man deserves to be a minister of Christ. Salvation from first to last is of grace. No man deserves pardon, acceptance, renewal or eternal life. 1 Cor. 15:10; Eph. 1:7; 2:5; Rom. 4:16.”  William S. Plumer (1802-1880)

Pink (1886-1952)

“If we truly appreciate the mystery of God’s grace and wisdom, we shall study the Bible as one who has found great spoil. The very nature and content of the Bible as God’s Word will compel our most earnest application to it.” John Murray (1898-1975)
