I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration.

My hope lives not because I am not a sinner, but because I am a sinner for whom Christ died; my trust is not that I am holy, but that being unholy, HE is my righteousness. My faith rests not upon what I am or shall be or feel or know, but in what Christ is, in what He has done, and in what He is now doing for me. Hallelujah!

Unbelief will destroy the best of us; faith will save the worst of us.

Long ago I ceased to count heads. Truth is usually in the minority in this evil world

Faith is believing that Christ is what he is said to be, and that he will do what he has promised to do, and then to expect this of him.

Come as you are. If you are the blackest soul out of hell, trust Christ, and that act of trust shall make you clean.

I believe nothing merely because Calvin taught it, but because I have found his teaching in the Word of God.
