Quote by Klass Schilder

“God has arranged all of the preceding centuries, all of the intervolutions of time, all of the events from Genesis 1:1 up to this moment - has arranged and moulded them, has had them converge in such a way that there would be a place for this hour, the hour in which His Son will be bound... He allowed neither the forces above nor the forces below to tamper with the clock of history. He directed the battles of Caesars, the conflicts of kings, the migration of peoples, the world wars, the course of stars and sun and moon, the change of epochs, and the complex movement of all things in the world in such a way that this hour would come and had to come.”

“In Caiaphas' court-room the Prisoner was now the object of scorn and contempt, 'a worm and no man', a blot on the very name and honour of Israel, a Philistine of the Philistines, worthy only of death. Here we touch another nerve of Christ's sufferings, his rejection by his own people. 'He came to his own home, and his own people received him not' (John 1:11). He was officially disowned as a child of Abraham, he who had wept over impenitent Jerusalem. In this rejection God was rending the Saviour's heart. To be thus spurned by his own people and treated as a reprobate, was a bitter grief to bear. To be delivered to the pagans for further trial and then death added to the pain that wrenched at his heart. But the One who had come to save the world must suffer at the hands of the world.”

“Resistance is dauntless audacity of the lesser against the greater through a will to suffering—the essential quality of existing—because suffering most clearly evinces the will-power of the sufferer. History is the story of ‘I’ as observed and evaluated by ‘me.’ When the history is written by my hands, I will fear nothing and live as if I am the history.”

“In this single lifetime, I have lived in different worlds, joined different groups and walked many different paths. The truth is all paths involve a great deal of sacrifice, suffering and they wear you down. However, you have to walk the path that you find worth suffering for, and only you can find comfort in pain. True life fulfillment is finding that or those you can suffer for, willingly and without repression.”

“...when a heartbroken daughter of the King offers her pain and suffering to Christ, the enemy suffers a great defeat. Do we feel strong? No, we feel heartbroken. But when we enter into that divine exchange and take our sorrow to Christ, we become strong in His strength.”

“A true spouse of Christ gives little thought to herself. A person who constantly thinks of himself is rarely at peace, nor is a person who has no control of his desires, who yearns for material things beyond his means. Whoever has more concern for his body than he has for his soul, who insists on his own will instead of God’s will, who is more anxious about time than he is about eternity, more conscious of the absence of comforts than he is about the presence of God, more anxious to be loved and pampered than he is to love and suffer, more interested in receiving favors and being consoled than he is in aiding his neighbor and comforting others—there is a person who seldom knows peace.”
