More quotes by Samuel Rutherford

Samuel Rutherford
Desires going before conversion are not such as can calm a storming conscience.
Samuel Rutherford

Samuel Rutherford

Samuel Rutherford
The night will close the door & fasten my anchor within the veil and I shall go away to sleep.
Samuel Rutherford

Samuel Rutherford
