More quotes by Thomas Brooks
A preacher's life should be a commentary upon his doctrine... Heavenly doctrines should always be adorned with a heavenly life.
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
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.
Thomas Brooks
The only ground of God's love is his love.
Thomas Brooks
Satan often paints sin with virtue's colors.
Thomas Brooks
Better to bear than to swear, and to die than to lie.
Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks
Truth is mighty and will prevail
Thomas Brooks
It is better to have a sore than a seared conscience.
Thomas Brooks
Weak Christians are afraid of the shadow of the cross.
Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks
A man's most glorious actions will at last be found to be but glorious sins, if he hath made himself, and not the glory of God, the end of those actions.
Thomas Brooks
An idle life and a holy heart is a contradiction.
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
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
Secret sins commonly lie nearest 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.
