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
...When we are waiting upon God to bless us, we should stir up ourselves to bless him.
Matthew Henry
Come, and see the victories of the cross. Christ's wounds are thy healings, His agonies thy repose, His conflicts thy conquests, His groans thy songs, His pains thine ease, His shame thy glory, His death thy life, His sufferings thy salvation.
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
Sanctified afflictions are spiritual promotions.
Matthew Henry
They that die by famine die by inches.

Seducers are more dangerous enemies to the church than persecutors.
Matthew Henry
The first lesson in Christ's school is self-denial.
Matthew Henry
What harrowing is after sowing, the same is meditation after hearing--it hides the word.
Matthew Henry
Many a dangerous temptation comes to us in gay, fine colours, that are but skin-deep.
Matthew Henry
Take Jesus for your king, and by baptism swear allegiance to him take him for your prophet, and hear him take him for your priest, to make atonement for you.
Matthew Henry
The service of sin is perfect slavery.
Matthew Henry
Those that forget to attend God with their praises may perhaps be compelled to attend him with their prayers.
