In these names, Lord and Jesus, Christ’s divinity and humanity blend.  He whom we trust is both God and Man.  As God alone, we could never have known Him.  As Man alone, He could never have saved us.  (William Graham Scroggie; 1877-1958)

“Never a word of merit should be in the mouth of a true believer; for have mercy on me, O Lord, is David’s only plea; any good in us, is but a sandy ground to build on.”  (David Dickson; 1583-1663)

“By the immutability of God is meant that he is incapable of change, either in duration of life, or in nature, character, will or happiness.  In none of these, nor in any other respect is there any possibility of change.  Change must be for the worse or for the better, but God cannot become worse or better.  (James Petigru Boyce; 1827-1888)

“Our love is not the cause of His, but His is the cause of ours; and it is not merely His loving us, but the shedding it abroad in our hearts by His Spirit, which draws out our love to Him; for though He loved us, yet if He had not some way or other manifested it to us, and overcome our hearts with it, we should still have remained enemies to Him; but His giving us the sense and perception of it in our hearts, is what has drawn us to Himself, and will keep us there.  (John Gill; 1697-1771)

“The greatest honor to which any man can attain on earth is to be a servant of Jesus Christ.”  (William S. Plumer; 1802-1880)

“I offer the following description:  Christian contentment is that sweet, inward, quiet, gracious frame of spirit which freely submits to and delights in God’s wise and fatherly disposal in every condition.”(Jeremiah Burroughs; 1599-1646)

“Humility consists in being dependent on grace alone.”  (Frans Bakker; 1919-1965)

“There in nothing too minute for Christ’s care, and there is nothing too great for His power.”  (W. E. Best  1919-2007)

“The death of Christ is vicarious satisfaction.  It is the actual blotting out of our sins because it is the perfect satisfaction of God’s justice.  It is the ground of a perfect and everlasting righteousness because it is the infinitely precious death of the Son of God in the flesh.”  (Herman Hoeksema; 1886-1965)

‘WE NEED ‘grace and truth’ to expel the demons of selfishness and falsehood, and there is only one Being in the universe that can supply our need, and that is Christ.  He is ‘full of grace and truth.’  “Lord to whom shall we go?”  (David Thomas  1813-1894)
