Rejoicing of Hope – William Gurnall

Hope fills the afflicted soul with such inward joy and consolation, that it can laugh while tears are in the eye, sigh and sing all in a breath; it is called “the rejoicing of hope” (Hebrews 3:6).

– William Gurnall –

Living To Die – David Wilkerson

Likewise today, some Christians are content to merely exist until they die. They don’t want to risk anything, to believe God, to grow or mature. They refuse to believe his Word, and have become hardened in their unbelief. Now they’re living just to die.

– David Wilkerson –

Don’t Preach Repentance Unless … – Joseph Parker

The man whose little sermon is “repent” sets himself against his age, and will for the time being be battered mercilessly by the age whose moral tone he challenges. There is but one end for such a man—”off with his head!” You had better not try to preach repentance until you have pledged your head to heaven.

– Joseph Parker –

Time is Short – Charles Spurgeon

Time is short. Eternity is long. It is only reasonable that this short life be lived in the light of eternity.

– Charles Spurgeon –

Dying Thoughts – Richard Baxter

Is he the God of the hills, and not of the valleys? Did he love me in my youth and health, and will he not also in my age and pain and sickness?

– Richard Baxter – 
from Dying Thoughts, 1683
