“Grace stands for the whole sum of the unmerited blessings which come to men through Jesus Christ.  It means the unconditioned, undeserved, spontaneous, eternal, stooping and pardoning love of God. Thus, it describes a disposition in the Divine nature.”  William Graham Scroggie  (1877-1958)

“As a man’s hopes are, such is he.  If his hope is in the promise of God, it is and must be, well with him.”  Charles H. Spurgeon  (1834-1892)

“Nothing that a man does in this life is without its consequences.  Every effect has a cause, and every cause produces an effect.  So many of our troubles arise from the fact that we forget that causes lead to effects, and that these effects in turn lead to certain inevitable consequences.”  D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones  (1899-1981)

“Satan does more hurt in his sheep’s skin than by roaring like a lion.”  Thomas Brooks  (1608-1680)

“No!  Jehovah is executing his purposes even through the wickedness of men and devils: and all things that have taken place from the creation must minister to his glory.”  Alexander Carson  (1776-1844)

“Goodness is laid up in the promise, wrought in the performance; and that goodness which is laid up is wrought for them that trust in God; and thus, as God’s faithfulness engages us to believe, so our faith, as it were, engages God’s faithfulness to perform the promise.”  Nathanael Hardy (1618-1670)

“Every kind of trial is to be accepted as a necessary means of strengthening our character for there can be no virtue without temptations to vice; temptations which come from the evil one.”  (Alfred Plummer; 1841-1926)

“He who believes that God is really the Almighty Creator and Preserver of the whole creation will have no difficulty in believing that He has intervened miraculously in the course of human history.”  Norval Geldenhuys (1918-1864)

“Teach me to do thy will.”  We are to pray that God would teach us to know, and then teach us to do his will.  Knowledge without obedience is lame, obedience without knowledge is blind; and we must never hope for acceptance if we offer the blind and the lame to God.”  Vincent Alsop  (1703)

“Blessed are the poor in spirit,” They are emptied of themselves, and look upon themselves as having nothing, deserving nothing, and able to do nothing spiritually.  That is the first link of the chain, and each succeeding link depends upon the former link.”  Thomas Goodwin  (1600-1679)
