No creature hath the like resemblance to the divine nature, as light hath. He doth not only dwell in light, but he is light. Light is a pure, bright, clear, spiritual, unmixed substance. God is infinitely so.

More quotes by Matthew Henry
Love is the root obedience is the fruit.
Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry
Not lost, but gone before.
Matthew Henry
Those that forget to attend God with their praises may perhaps be compelled to attend him with their prayers.

Those who teach by their doctrine must teach by their life, or else they pull down with one hand what they build up with the other.
Matthew Henry
None shall be saved by Christ but those only who work out their own salvation while God is working in them by His truth and His Holy Spirit. We cannot do without God and God will not do without us.
Matthew Henry
The best we can say to God in prayer, is what He has said to us.
Matthew Henry
We must believe that He is able to do what He will, wise to do what is best, and good, according to His promise, to do what is best for us, if we love Him, and serve Him.

Matthew Henry
That which God plants he will take care to keep watered.
Matthew Henry
What God requires of us he himself works in us, or it is not done. He that commands faith, holiness, and love, creates them by the power of his grace going along with his word, that he may have all the praise.
Matthew Henry
Holy joy will be oil to the wheels of our obedience.
Matthew Henry
Riches are a blessing or a curse to a man according as he has or has not a heart to make good use of them.
Matthew Henry
Tears are a tribute to our deceased friends. When the body is sown, it must be watered. But we must not sorrow as those that have no hope for we have a good hope through grace both concerning them and concerning ourselves.
Matthew Henry
It is a sin against God not to pray for the Israel of God, especially for those of them that are under our charge. Good men are afraid of the guilt of omissions ( I Samuel 12).
Matthew Henry
