Life, any life, would be well spent, under any conceivable conditions in bringing one human soul to know and love and serve God and His Son, and thereby securing for yourself at least one temple where your name and memory would be held for ever and for ever in affectionate praise — a regenerate heart in heaven. That fame will prove immortal, when all the poems and pyramids of earth have gone to dust.

There must be head faith before there can be heart faith. We must believe intellectually before we can believe savingly in the Lord Jesus.

One who was no less than the Fellow of Jehovah, the Radiance of His glory, the exact Impress of His Person. Thus we see that boundless love, inflexible justice and omnipotent power all combined to make possible the salvation of those who believe.

It is not simply that God "loves," but that He is Love itself.

Christ died not in order to make God love us, but because He did love His people, Calvary is the supreme demonstration of Divine love.

Well did the Puritan Sibbes say, "God, to show His love to us, showed Himself God in this: that He could be God and go so low as to die" (Vol. 5, p. 327).

Is God obliged to force His gift on those who value it not?

Christ was pure; absolutely pure. He was the Holy One. He had an infinite abhorrence of sin. He loathed it. His holy soul shrank from it. But on the Cross our iniquities were all laid upon Him, and sin—that vile thing—enrapt itself around Him like a horrible serpent's coils. And yet, He willingly suffered for us! Why? Because He loved us: "Having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end" (Joh 13:1).

We heartily agree with Charnock: "In that one word love, God hath wrapped up all the devotion He requires of us.

I'm starting to think that Jesus does love football.

Nobody is beyond the reach of the Gospel.

We are not saying that if you believe in evolution that you can't be a Christian, not at all. Because the Bible says that by grace you are saved. You don't save yourself. It is by confessing the Lord Jesus and that he was rose from the dead that you are saved.
