More quotes by Sinclair B. Ferguson
Marriage, and the process of coming to it, is not heaven! It is the bonding together of two needy sinners in order to make a partnership which is substantially greater than either of them alone.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
You must know, rest in, think through, and act upon your new identity - you are in Christ
Sinclair B. Ferguson
Thankfulness grows best in the seed-bed of conviction, just as some plants must be placed in the soil in the winter if they are to flower in the summer.

I've often reflected on the rather obvious thought that when his disciples were about to have the world collapse in on them, our Lord spent so much time in the Upper Room speaking to them about the mystery of the Trinity. If anything could underline the necessity of Trinitarianism for practical Christianity, that must surely be it!
Sinclair B. Ferguson
Jesus undid everything that Adam did, and did everything Adam failed to do.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
The Father did not require the death of Christ to persuade Him to love us. Christ died because the Father loves us.

When I look at the cross, I learn to say: 'The Son of God loved me, and gave Himself for me' (Galatians 2:20). I begin to believe with Paul that if God did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up to the cross for me, then He loves me so much He will always give me only what will bring me blessing (Romans 8:32).
Sinclair B. Ferguson
We best defend the Lord's glory by speaking first TO Him about unbelieving men rather than speaking first ABOUT Him to unbelieving men.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
The notion that we are children of God, his own sons and daughters, lies at the heart of all Christian theology, and is the mainspring of all Christian living.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
Man's insulting God is not reversed by our insulting man.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
To be free from the possibility of discouragements would be more ‘spiritual’ than Jesus-and therefore not truly spiritual at all.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
Remember that you are not saved by increased levels of holiness, however desirable it is that you should reach them. ...It is Christ who saves us-through faith. Your faith is a poor and crumbling thing, as is your spiritual service. Jesus Christ alone is qualified and able to save you because of what He has done.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
Probably no theologian in English language has ever rivaled Owen stressing the absolute centrality of Christ's penal substitution and therefore his as Priest. . . . For that reason alone The Priesthood of Christ is worth all the time it takes to read it with humility, care, and reflection.

Knowing God is your single greatest privilege as a Christian
Sinclair B. Ferguson
Without the spirit of the Lord Jesus, we will look upon 'the least of these' simply as the least.
