Untitled Sermon (9)

If there had been no others in the world beside yourself, the Redeemer would have come for the sake of you alone, and would have given His blood and His life for you.

Alphonsus Maria de’ Liguori

Never once is God said to be reconciled to man; it is always man who is reconciled to God.

William Barclay

To be in Christ is the source of the Christian’s life;to be like Christ is the sum of his excellence;to be with Christ is the fullness of his joy.

Charles Hodge

It is grace at the beginning, and grace at the end. So that when you and I come to lie upon our death beds, the one thing that should comfort and help and strengthen us there is the thing that helped us in the beginning. Not what we have been, not what we have done, but the grace of God in Jesus Christ our Lord. The Christian life starts with grace, it must continue with grace, it ends with grace. Grace, wondrous grace. By the grace of God I am what I am. Yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

David Martyn Lloyd-Jones

If you are looking for an example of humility, look at the cross.

Thomas Aquinas

God is their portion, Christ their companion, the Spirit their Comforter, earth their lodge, and heaven their home.

Charles Spurgeon

2288 God’s eternity and man’s mortality join to persuade us that faith in Jesus Christ is not optional.
