“If the world is ever conquered for our Lord, it is not by ministers, nor by office-bearers, nor by the great, and noble and mighty, but by every member of Christ's body being a working member; doing his work; filling his own sphere; holding his own post; and saying to Jesus, "Lord, what wilt Thou have me to do?"” IfsWorldBodyJesusChristLordMembersOfficeNoblePostsMinistersSpheresFillingOur Lord Author:Thomas Guthrie
“You are so to put forth the power that God has given you; you are so to give, and sacrifice to give, as to earn the eulogium pronounced on the woman, "She hath done what she could." Do it now. It is not a safe thing to leave a generous feeling to the cooling influences of a cold world. If you intend to do a mean thing, wait till tomorrow; if you are to do a noble thing, do it now,--now!” IfsWorldGivingMeanDoneFeelingsGivenWaitingSacrificeInfluenceColdTomorrowSafeNobleGenerousBenevolenceCoolingCold World Author:Thomas Guthrie
“Sin! Sin! Thou art a hateful and horrible thing, that abominable thing which God hates. And what wonder? Thou hast insulted His holy majesty; thou hast bereaved Him of beloved children; thou hast crucified the Son of His infinite love; thou hast vexed His gracious Spirit; thou hast defied His power; thou hast despised His grace; and in the body and blood of Jesus, as if that were a common thing, thou hast trodden under foot His matchless mercy. Surely, brethren, the wonder of wonders is, that sin is not that abominable thing which we also hate.” IfsChildrenArtBodySpiritHateJesusSinCommonWonderGraceBloodFeetSonHolyMercyInfiniteHorribleBelovedMajestyHatefulGraciousDespisedBrethrenInsultedHorrible ThingsInfinite LoveCommon ThingsBlood Of Jesus Author:Thomas Guthrie
