More quotes by Samuel Rutherford
Heaven is a house full of miracles yea, of spectacles and images of free grace.
Samuel Rutherford
Think it not hard if you get not your will, nor your delights in this life God will have you to rejoice in nothing but himself.
Samuel Rutherford
Christ and His cross are not separable in this life, howbeit Christ and His cross part at heaven's door, for there is no house-room for crosses in heaven. One tear, one sigh, one sad heart, one fear, one loss, one thought of trouble cannot find lodging there.
Samuel Rutherford
My dear brother, let God make of you what He will, He will end all with consolation, and shall make glory out of your suffering.
Samuel Rutherford

Samuel Rutherford

Samuel Rutherford
Since He looked upon me my heart is not my own. He hath runaway to heaven with it.
Samuel Rutherford
Every man by nature is a freeman born by nature no man cometh out of the womb under any civil subjection to king, prince, or judge.
Samuel Rutherford
The great Master Gardener, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, in a wonderful providence, with his own hand, planted me here, where by his grace, in this part of his vineyard, I grow and here I will abide till the great Master of the vineyard think fit to transplant me.
Samuel Rutherford
I had but one joy, the apple of the eye of my delights , to preach Christ my Lord
Samuel Rutherford
I find my Lord Jesus cometh not in the precise way that I lay wait for Him. He hath a manner of His own. Oh, how high are His ways above my ways
Samuel Rutherford
Those who can take that crabbed tree handsomely upon their back, and fasten it on cannily, shall find it such a burden as wings unto a bird, or sails to a ship.
Samuel Rutherford
I wonder many times that ever a child of God should have a sad heart, considering what their Lord is preparing for them.
Samuel Rutherford
The devil is but a whetstone to sharpen the faith and patience of the saints.-
Samuel Rutherford
Every day we may see some new thing in Christ. His love hath neither brim nor bottom.
Samuel Rutherford
If ye never had a sick night and a pained soul for sin, ye have not yet lighted upon Christ.
Samuel Rutherford
