More quotes by Thomas Brooks
The lazy Christian has his mouth full of complaints, when the active Christian has his heart full of comforts.
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
Nothing humbles and breaks the heart of a sinner like mercy and love. Souls that converse much with sin and wrath, may be much terrified but souls that converse much with grace and mercy, will be much humbled.
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
Cold prayers shall never have any warm answers. God will suit His returns to our requests. Lifeless, services shall have lifeless answers. When men are dull, God will be dumb.
Thomas Brooks
When afflictions arrest us, we shall murmur and grumble and struggle until we see that it is God that strikes.
Thomas Brooks
Fire and water may as well agree in the same vessel, as grace and sin in the same heart.
Thomas Brooks
In a storm there is no shelter like the wings of God.
Thomas Brooks
If God were not my friend, Satan would not be so much my enemy.
Thomas Brooks
Weak Christians are afraid of the shadow of the cross.
Thomas Brooks
Saints spring and thrive most internally, when they are most externally afflicted. Afflictions are the mother of virtue.
Thomas Brooks
It is not he who knows most, nor he who hears most, nor yet he who talks most, but he who exercises grace most, who has most communion with God.
Thomas Brooks
Till men have faith in Christ, their best services are but glorious sins.
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
To repent of sin is as great a mark of grace as not to sin.
Thomas Brooks
Sin in a wicked man is like poison in a serpent it is in its natural place.
Thomas Brooks
Every thing that a man leans upon but God, will be a dart that will certainly pierce his heart through and through. He who leans only upon Christ, lives the highest, choicest, safest, and sweetest life.
Thomas Brooks
What labor and pains worldlings take to obtain the vain things of this life-to obtain the poor things of this world, which are but shadows and dreams, and mere nothings!
Thomas Brooks
He is the best preacher, not that tickles the ear, but that breaks the heart.
Thomas Brooks
Pleasures seem solid in their pursuit but are mere clouds in the enjoyment.
