Oh, what a grievous downfall, to plunge from the utmost sense of security, from confidence and delight in God into such an awful terror that man shrinks from the sight of God more than from the sight and presence of the devil!

Faith
March 15, 2013
Have you by faith grasped Jesus? Are you by faith cleaving unto Him? Faith is the eye which sees the Ladder—the hand which touches it—the strength which holds it—the feet which mount it. Has the Holy Spirit opened to you this figure, which was new life to Jacob? There is a ready test. Is the world beneath your tread? Do you trample on its love, its fashions, its maxims, its principles?

Anything God has ever done, He can do now. Anything God has ever done anywhere He can do here. Anything God has ever done for anyone, He can do for you.

No faith is required to do the possible; actually [only] a morsel of this atom-powered stuff is needed to do the impossible.

“Yet lackest thou one thing; Go sell all that thou hast, and give to the poor; he was grieved at that saying, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions!” Poor youth! He had a good mind to be a Christian, and to inherit eternal life, but thought it too dear, if it could be purchased at no less an expense than of his estate! And thus many, both young and old, now-a-days, come running to worship our blessed Lord in public, and kneel before him in private, and inquire at his gospel, what they must do to inherit eternal life: but when they find they must renounce the self-enjoyment of riches, and forsake all in affection to follow him, they cry, “The Lord pardon us in this thing! We pray thee, have us excused” … He will not!”
