from “If I Perish” by Esther Ahn Kim
Jesus gave His life to love me, and despite what it costs me, I can think of no greater calling than to love someone else in the same way that Jesus loved me.
– Mary Morgan –
You cannot compensate by sacrifice what you lose through disobedience.
– Ed Cole –
Peace is the umpire for knowing the will of God.
– Ed Cole –
When a prophet is accepted and deified, his message is lost. The prophet is only useful so long as he is stoned as a public nuisance calling us to repentance, disturbing our comfortable routines, breaking our respectable idols, shattering our sacred conventions.
– AG Gardiner –
There are some rare Christians who seem born for thoughtfulness. … This is the highest and holiest ministry of love. It is not softness nor weakness; it is strength – but strength enriched by divine gentleness.
– JR Miller –
The supreme and crying need of this lost world is the Gospel. Shall we not rise at Christ’s command to carry the blessed saving news to every perishing one?
– Dr. Robert Jaffray –
Rivers to the ocean run,
Nor stay in all their course;
Fire ascending seeks the sun,
Both speed them to their source:
So a soul that’s born of God,
Pants to view his glorious face;
Upward tends to his abode,
To rest in his embrace.
– Robert Seagraves –
