“What! Would you have the Lord find me idle when He comes?” – John Calvin (to his friends who were worried about his daily regimen of work).
‘The heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ.’ – C.H. Spurgeon
Doctrinal preaching certainly bores the hypocrites; but it is only doctrinal preaching that will save Christ’s sheep. – J I Packer
“We worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in unity;
Neither blending his persons: nor dividing his essence.” – Athansian creed
A prudent wife commands her husband by obeying him. – John Trapp
People today want a painless Pentecost. After the apostles were filled in the upper room, they were persecuted… (and) they went to prison for preaching the Word. Immediately (when) you’re filled with the Spirit, it doesn’t matter what area you yield your life, the devil will fight to get back the ground he lost in your life. - Leonard Ravenhill
David had one of the most blessed experiences in the world, and the blessedness was that he was miserable about his sin. – Leonard Ravenhill
There’s one thing we need above everything else; it’s something we don’t talk about these days. We need a mighty avalanche of conviction of sin. – Leonard Ravenhill
Sin is not to be ignored, nor minimised. It is the most patent fact in life, the darkest experience in the history of the race. It is the root of all the world’s tragedies. It is that which makes “conscience a thousand swords,” “the torture of an inward hell,” “the worm that doth begnaw the soul.” – James M. Campbell
Any concept of grace that makes us feel more comfortable sinning is not biblical grace. God’s grace never encourages us to live in sin, on the contrary, it empowers us to say no to sin and yes to truth. – Randy Alcorn
