Bodily pain should help us understand the cross, but mental depression should make us apt scholars at Gethsemane.—Charles Spurgeon
"The two great graces essential to a saint in this life are faith and repentance. These are the two wings by which he flies to heaven." ~ Thomas Watson (1620-1686)
“Christianity ... provides a unified answer to the whole of life” - Schaeffer,(Escape from Reason).
“To ask that man should have been made so that he was not able to revolt is to ask that God’s creation should have ceased after He created plants and animals. It is to ask that man should be reduced to machine programming. It is to ask that man as man should not exist.” Schaeffer,(The God who is there).
For your encouragement, know, that he who calleth you to come, knows your burden, what your sins have been and troubles are, yet he calls you. JFlavel @FlavelJohn
