Quote

Instead of a river, God often gives us a brook, which may be running today and dried up tomorrow. Why? To teach us not to rest in our blessings, but in the blesser Himself.

A 'god' who's will is resisted, designs frustrated, and purpose checkmated, possesses no title to Deity.

Love is the queen of all the Christain graces.

The truth of God may well be likened to a narrow path skirted on either side by a dangerous and destructive precipice: in other words, it lies between two gulfs of error.
Arthur W. Pink
Image
Almost all doctrinal error is really truth perverted. Truth wrongly divided. Truth disproportionately held and taught.

An honest heart loves the Truth.

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
Image
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.

Image
Chastisement is designed for our good, to promote our highest interests. Look beyond the rod to the All-wise hand that wields it!
Arthur W. Pink
Image
If I have never mourned over my waywardness, then I have no solid ground for rejoicing.
Arthur W. Pink

Our first postulate is that because God is God, He does as He pleases, only as He pleases, always as He pleases that His great concern is the accomplishment of His own pleasure and the promotion of His own glory that He is the Supreme Being, and therefore Sovereign of the universe.

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.

After grief for sin there should be joy for forgiveness.
