“When we seriously consider who He was, for whom He suffered, and what He endured, we cannot but perceive God’s infinite and irreconcilable abhorrence of all iniquity.”  (John Colquhoun; 1748-1827)

“Cast not away your confidence because God defers his performances.  Though providences run cross, though they move backwards and forwards, you have a sure and faithful word to rely upon.  Promises, though they be for a time seemingly delayed, cannot be finally frustrated.  Dare not to harbor such a thought within yourselves.  The being of God may as well fail as the promise of God.”  (Timothy Cruso; 1656-1697)

“We must conclude that it is impossible for men to believe, unless it be given them from above.”  John Calvin  (1509-1564)

the love of unworthy things.”  George Burrowes  (1811-1844)

“God’s work is perfect, man’s is clumsy and incomplete.  God does not leave off till he has finished.”  Alexander Maclaren  (1826-1910)
