Desire a thousand times more to be godly, than to seem so. -Richard Baxter

The tender heart has great regard to God’s authority, as it looks to the mercies and favors received from Him, and to the dreadful judgments that are deserved. -Jeremiah Burroughs

The love of God brings peace and order to the soul, for when man loves God above all things, all other loves fall into their proper place and are directed to their proper ends. -Thomas Aquinas

The soul enjoys an illicit freedom when it loves what it was not granted to love & turns away from what it was meant to love. It becomes slave to its desire for a lower kind of beauty, & by abandoning its own superior beauty, it corrupts itself & debases its power. -Augustine

How we wish we were just honoring you for your birthday… We love you, Bishop @ferdiecabiling

As when things are cold we bring them to the fire to heat and melt, so bring we our cold hearts to the fire of the love of Christ; consider we of our sins against Christ, and of Christ's love towards us; dwell upon this meditation. - @SibbesRichard

God responded to Satan’s pride with the humility of Christ. God answered the rebellion of Satan with the obedience of Christ. All the miseries and rage of Satan were overwhelmed by the joy and love of Jesus. @DrJimHamilton

Adapting an 1840 exhortation of Robert M’Cheyne & making it relevant today: For every look at social media, take ten looks at Christ.

Re sexual revolution: No individual historical phenomenon is its own cause. It has a context, it emerges from a specific historical matrix. Carl Trueman, The Rise & Triumph of the Modern Self

There is a sequence to the Lord’s Prayer. Jesus said,“hallowed be your name”, not “hallowed is your name”. It is an appeal, not an ascription. It follows then that His kingdom will not come where His name is not hallowed.

In all our sinning, God is invariably the most offended party. That is why we must have his forgiveness, or we have nothing. DA Carson

The gospel seeps into the heart with quiet habits of life and liturgy. @MattMBarrett

A person’s emotional truth should never eclipse objective, logical truth. It’s easy to submit to lies when they feed our emotional truth. We should endeavor to do a rigorous effort to substantiate something as factual & true. Falsehood is evil. What we advocate, we propagate.
