Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry
If therefore our houses be houses of the Lord, we shall for that reason love home, reckoning our daily devotion the sweetest of our daily delights, and our family worship the most valuable of our family comforts. This will sanctify to us all the conveniences of our houses, and reconcile us to the inconveniences of it.
Matthew Henry
Pure Christianity and serious godliness fear not the scrutiny of a free thought, but despise the impotent malice of a prejudiced one.
Matthew Henry
The more reverence we have for the Word of God, the more joy we shall find in it.
Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry
I thank Thee first because I was never robbed before second, because although they took my purse they did not take my life third, because although they took my all, it was not much and fourth because it was I who was robbed, and not I who robbed.
Matthew Henry
