More quotes by Thomas Brooks
Consider that the trials and troubles, the calamities and miseries, the crosses and losses that you meet with in this world, are all the hell that ever you shall have.
Thomas Brooks
That sorrow for sin that keeps the soul from looking towards the mercy seat is a sinful sorrow.
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
Self is the only oil that makes the chariot-wheels of the hypocrite move in all religious concerns.
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
Sin is bad in the eye, worse in the tongue, worse still in the heart, but worst of all in the life.
Thomas Brooks
Our sins are debts that none can pay but Christ. It is not our tears, but His blood it is not our sighs, but His sufferings, that can testify for our sins. Christ must pay all, or we are prisoners forever.
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
Man’s holiness is now his greatest happiness, and in heaven man’s greatest happiness will be his perfect holiness.
Thomas Brooks
It is better to have a sore than a seared conscience.
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
Christ is the sun, and all the watches of our lives should be set by the dial of his motion.
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
God hears no more than the heart speaks and if the heart be dumb, God will certainly be deaf.
Thomas Brooks
Deliver me, O Lord, from that evil man, myself.
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
Truth is mighty and will prevail
Thomas Brooks
An humble soul looks upon Christ's righteousness as his only crown.
Thomas Brooks
He who stands upon his own strength will never stand.
Thomas Brooks
True repentance includes sorrow for sin and contrition of heart. It breaks the heart with sighs and sobs and groans.
