More quotes by Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks
Till men have faith in Christ, their best services are but glorious sins.
Thomas Brooks
Self is the only oil that makes the chariot-wheels of the hypocrite move in all religious concerns.
Thomas Brooks
Though our private desires are ever so confused, though our private requests are ever so broken, and though our private groanings are ever so hidden from men, yet God eyes them, records them, and puts them upon the file of heaven, and will one day crown them with glorious answers and returns.
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
Weak Christians are afraid of the shadow of the cross.
Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks
Let those be thy choicest companions who have made Christ their chief companion.
Thomas Brooks
To repent of sin is as great a mark of grace as not to sin.
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
Ah, believer, it is only Heaven that is above all winds, storms, and tempests God did not cast man out of Paradise that he might find another paradise in this world.
Thomas Brooks
There is no such way to get much grace, as to be thankful for a little grace. He who opens his mouth wide in praise, shall have his heart lled with graces. Ingratitude stops the ear of God, and shuts the hand of God, and turns away the heart of the God of grace and therefore we had need to be thankful for a little grace.
Thomas Brooks
He is the best preacher, not that tickles the ear, but that breaks the heart.
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 in a wicked man is like poison in a serpent it is in its natural place.
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
If you would have a clear evidence that little love, that little faith, that little zeal, you have is true? Then live up to that love, live up to that faith, live up to that zeal that you have and this will be evidence beyond all contradiction.
Thomas Brooks
Though there is nothing more dangerous, yet there is nothing more ordinary, than for weak saints to make their sense and feeling the judge of their condition. We must strive to walk by faith.
Thomas Brooks
God looks not at the oratory of your prayers, how elegant they may be nor at the geometry of your prayers, how long they may be nor at the arithmetic of your prayers, how many they may be not at logic of your prayers, how methodical they may be but the sincerity of them he looks at.
