Quotes 8 Jun 17

Some providences, like Hebrew letters, must be read backwards. --John Flavel

“I feel it is my duty to plod on while daylight lasts.” – William Carey

“Don’t you know, young man, that from every town and every village and every hamlet in England, wherever it may be, there is a road to London? So from every text of Scripture there is a road to Christ. And my dear brother, your business is, when you get to a text, to say, now, what is the road to Christ? I have never found a text that had not got a road to Christ in it, and if ever I do find one, I will go over hedge and ditch but I would get at my Master, for the sermon cannot do any good unless there is a savor of Christ in it.”
C.H. Spurgeon

"The churches must owe, as we all do know,
For when they be drooping and ready to fall,
By a Whitsun or Church-ale up again they shall go
And owe their repairing to a pot of good ale"
"Exaltation of Ale" by Francis Beaumont
