Charles H. Spurgeon
Morality is a neat cover for foul venom, but it does not alter the fact that the heart is vile, and the man himself is under damnation. Men will be damned with good works as well as without them, if they make them their confidence [rather than Jesus Christ].
Charles H. Spurgeon
John MacArthur, Matthieu 8-15, Moody Publishers, 1985, p. 233.
No matter how terrible they may be, the hardships and tragedies of human living that often befall Christians are not the crosses of which Jesus speaks. Such things as a cruel spouse, a rebellious child, a debilitating or terminal illness, the loss of a job, or destruction of a house by a tornado or flood, may strongly test a believer’s faith; but those are not crosses. The cross of a believer is not a mystical or spiritual identification with the cross of Christ or some “crucified life” idea. Such concepts are foreign to the context, and the cross of Christ was yet future when Jesus spoke here. The disciples would hear cross and think only of physical death. A cross is the willing sacrifice of everything one has, including life, for the sake of Christ. It is something that, like the Lord Himself, a believer must take on himself when it is thrust upon him by the unbelieving world because of his relationship to God.
John MacArthur, Matthew 8-15, Moody Publishers, 1985, p. 233.

Christ is the key to the Scriptures. . . . Christ is the center of the economy of salvation, the recapitulation of the Old and New Testaments, of the promises of the Law and of their fulfillment in the Gospel; he is the living and eternal link between the Old and New Covenants.

John Piper, The Supremacy of God in Preaching, Baker, 1990, p. 54-55.
Preaching is God’s appointed means for the conversion of sinners, the awakening of the church, and the preservation of the saints. If preaching fails in its task, the consequences are infinitely terrible.
John Piper, The Supremacy of God in Preaching, Baker, 1990, p. 54-55.

Mark Dever, Nine Marks of a Healthy Church, Crossway, 2000, p. 16, 17.
In this past century, Christians have all but ignored biblical teaching on the corporate nature of following Christ. Our churches anew awash in self-centered narcissism, hyper-individualism… Jesus never intended us to be Christians alone, and that our love for others who aren’t just like us is taken to be indicative of whether we truly love God.
Mark Dever, Nine Marks of a Healthy Church, Crossway, 2000, p. 16, 17.

The cross is not a mere event in history; it’s a way of life! Take up your cross DAILY, Jesus said!

Martin Luther, Œuvres, XXII:55.
May a merciful God preserve me from a Christian Church in which everyone is a saint! I want to be and remain in the church and little flock of the fainthearted, the feeble and the ailing, who feel and recognize the wretchedness of their sins, who sigh and cry to God incessantly for comfort and help, who believe in the forgiveness of sins.
Martin Luther, Works, XXII:55.

God sees hearts as we see faces.

Mark Dever, Nine Marks of a Healthy Church, Crossway, 2000, p. 67.
The laws of God are not simply external statutes, published and passed by some congress in heaven; rather, the laws of God reflect His very character. They are an expression of God Himself. So to break any of God’s laws is to live against God. It is to live contrary to Him.
Mark Dever, Nine Marks of a Healthy Church, Crossway, 2000, p. 67.

Mère Teresa
When you have nothing left but God, you have more than enough to start over again.
Mother Teresa
I.C. Herendeen, Accepting Christ.
For salvation, “repentance unto life” is just as necessary as is faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. No sinner was ever pardoned while he remained impenitent, while he remained in rebellion against God and His authority, and without submitting himself whole-heartedly to His Lordship. This involves the realization in his heart, wrought therein by the Holy Spirit, of “the sinfulness of sin” (Rom 7:13), of the awfulness of ignoring the claims of God and of defying His authority. Repentance is a “holy horror and hatred of sin, a deep sorrow for it, a contrite acknowledgment of it before God, and a complete heart forsaking of it.”
I.C. Herendeen, Accepting Christ.

It’s not really our sins that make us weep; they have a part in it… It is when we see the kind of Savior we have sinned against that really makes us weep.
