Were God to show grace to all of Adam's descendants, men would at once conclude that He was righteously compelled to take them to heaven as meet compensation for allowing the human race to fall into sin. But the great God in under no obligation to any of his creatures, least of all to those who are rebels against him.
Arthur W. Pink
When you observe that the fire in your room is getting dull, you do not always put on more coal, but simply stir with the poker so God often uses the black poker of adversity in order that the flames of devotion may burn more brightly.
Arthur W. Pink

How blessed to know that when the world hates us, God loves us!
Arthur W. Pink
The nature of Christ's salvation is woefully misrepresented by the present-day evangelist. He announces a Saviour from Hell rather than a Saviour from sin. And that is why so many are fatally deceived, for there are multitudes who wish to escape the Lake of fire who have no desire to be delivered from their carnality and worldliness.
Arthur W. Pink
An ineffably holy God, who has the utmost abhorrence of sin, was never invented by any of Adam's descendents.
Arthur W. Pink
Prayer is not intended to change God's purpose, nor is it to move Him to form fresh purposes. God has decreed that certain events shall come to pass through the means He has appointed for their accomplishment.
Arthur W. Pink
Faith endures as seeing Him who is invisible (Heb. 11:27) endures the disappointments, the hardships, and the heart-aches of life, by recognizing that all comes from the hand of Him who is too wise to err and too loving to be unkind.
