Discounting the Cross – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Discounting the Cross – Martyn Lloyd-Jones

It is not surprising that the cross has been discounted by modern theologians; it is because they have started with the love of God without His holiness.

I’m against sin – Billy Sunday

I’m against sin – Billy Sunday

Listen, I’m against sin. I’ll kick it as long as I’ve got a foot, I’ll fight it as long as I’ve got a fist, I’ll butt it as long as I’ve got a head, and I’ll bite it as long as I’ve got a tooth. And when I’m old, fistless, footless, and toothless, I’ll gum it till I go home to glory and it goes home to perdition.

The Heart – Richard Baxter

The Heart – Richard Baxter

The first and great work of a Christian is about his heart. There it is that God dwells by His Spirit, in His saints; and there it is that sin and Satan reign, in the ungodly. The great duties and the great sins are those of the heart. There is the root of good and evil: the tongue and life are but the fruits and expressions of that which dwells within.
