Making heaven on earth is our business.

Making heaven on earth is our business.
– William Booth –
Upon a life I did not live, upon a death I did not die; anothers life, anothers death, I stake my whole eternity.
– Horatius Bonar –
Men die in darkness at your side,
Without a hope to cheer the tomb;
Take up the torch and wave it wide,
The torch that lights time’s thickest gloom.
– Horatius Bonar –
It wasn’t trying to convince a GOOD MAN that he was in trouble with a bad GOD! But that it was to convince BAD MEN that they had deserved the wrath of a GOOD GOD!
– Paris Reidhead –
Disbelieve Hell, and you unscrew, unsettle, and unpin everything in Scripture!
– JC Ryle –
If sinners be dammed, at least let them leap to Hell over our bodies. If they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees. Let no one go there unwarned and unprayed for.
– Charles Spurgeon –
God is the highest good of the reasonable creature. The enjoyment of him is our proper; and is the only happiness with which our souls can be satisfied. To go to heaven, fully to enjoy God, is infinitely better than the most pleasant accommodations here. Better than fathers and mothers, husbands, wives, or children, or the company of any, or all earthly friends. These are but shadows; but the enjoyment of God is the substance. These are but scattered beams; but God is the sun. These are but streams; but God is the fountain. These are but drops, but God is the ocean.
– Jonathan Edwards –
The best way to drive out the devil, if he will not yield to texts of Scripture, is to jeer and flout him, for he cannot bear scorn
– Martin Luther –
Are there not millions of us who would rather go sleeping to hell; than sweating to heaven?
– Thomas Watson –
