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
Image
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
Image
Repentance is the vomit of the soul.
Thomas Brooks
Image
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
Image
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.

Sin is bad in the eye, worse in the tongue, worse still in the heart, but worst of all in the life.
Thomas Brooks
Image
The lazy Christian has his mouth full of complaints, when the active Christian has his heart full of comforts.

Thomas Brooks
Image
Every man obeys Christ as he prizes Christ, and no otherwise.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Saints spring and thrive most internally, when they are most externally afflicted. Afflictions are the mother of virtue.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Till men have faith in Christ, their best services are but glorious sins.
Thomas Brooks
Image
God hath in Himself all power to defend you, all wisdom to direct you, all mercy to pardon you, all grace to enrich you, all righteousness to clothe you, all goodness to supply you, and all happiness to crown you.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Satan often paints sin with virtue's colors.
Thomas Brooks
Image
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.

In a storm there is no shelter like the wings of God.

It is better to have a sore than a seared conscience.
