More quotes by Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks
Sin in a wicked man is like poison in a serpent it is in its natural place.
Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks

Pleasures seem solid in their pursuit but are mere clouds in the enjoyment.
Thomas Brooks
Fire and water may as well agree in the same vessel, as grace and sin in the same heart.
Thomas Brooks
To repent of sin is as great a mark of grace as not to sin.
Thomas Brooks
Your life is short, your duties many, your assistance great, and your reward sure therefore faint not, hold on and hold up, in ways of well-doing, and heaven shall make amends for all
Thomas Brooks
That sorrow for sin that keeps the soul from looking towards the mercy seat is a sinful sorrow.
Thomas Brooks
God sees us in secret, therefore, let, us seek his face in secret. Though heaven be God's palace, yet it is not his prison.
Thomas Brooks
If any man should ask me what is the first, second, and third part of being a Christian, I must answer 'Action!'
