More quotes by Thomas Brooks
Repentance is the vomit of the soul.
Thomas Brooks
There are no souls in the world that are so fearful to judge others as those that do most judge themselves, nor so careful to make a righteous judgment of men or things as those that are most careful to judge themselves.
Thomas Brooks
It is not the bee's touching of the flower that gathers honey, but her abiding for a time upon the flower that draws out the sweet. It is not he that reads most, but he that meditates most, that will prove the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian.
Thomas Brooks
Consider that spiritual safety comes through spiritual unity. Christians united together are difficult to separate, difficult to break, difficult to pick off and destroy. It is when you isolate yourself by disrupting or denying unity that you are most at risk.
Thomas Brooks
Fire and water may as well agree in the same vessel, as grace and sin in the same heart.
Thomas Brooks
It is better to have a sore than a seared conscience.
Thomas Brooks
Secret sins commonly lie nearest the heart.
Thomas Brooks
If any man should ask me what is the first, second, and third part of being a Christian, I must answer 'Action!'
Thomas Brooks
When afflictions arrest us, we shall murmur and grumble and struggle until we see that it is God that strikes.
Thomas Brooks
It is the very nature of grace to make a man strive to be most eminent in that particular grace which is most opposed to his bosom sin.
Thomas Brooks
Sin is bad in the eye, worse in the tongue, worse still in the heart, but worst of all in the life.
Thomas Brooks
Christ is the sun, and all the watches of our lives should be set by the dial of his motion.
Thomas Brooks
The least sin should humble the soul, but certainly the greatest sin should never discourage the soul, much less should it work the soul to despair. Despairing Judas perished, whereas the murderers of Christ, believing on Him, were saved.
Thomas Brooks
He who stands upon his own strength will never stand.
Thomas Brooks
In a storm there is no shelter like the wings of God.
Thomas Brooks
The lazy Christian has his mouth full of complaints, when the active Christian has his heart full of comforts.
Thomas Brooks
God hears no more than the heart speaks and if the heart be dumb, God will certainly be deaf.
Thomas Brooks
Satan promises the best, but pays with the worst he promises honor, and pays with disgrace he promises pleasure, and pays with pain he promises profit, and pays with loss, he promises life, and pays with death. But God pays as he promises all his payments are made in pure gold.
Thomas Brooks
There is no such way to attain to greater measures of grace, as for a man to live up to that little grace he has.
Thomas Brooks
Self is the only oil that makes the chariot-wheels of the hypocrite move in all religious concerns.
