The fact is, we sometimes read Scripture, thinking of what it ought to say, rather than what it does say.
Where God works, He works with men that work.
Jesus has made the life of his people as eternal as his own.
Do not try to make the gospel tasteful to carnal minds. Do not hide the offense of the cross, lest you make it of no effect.
Let your thoughts be psalms, your prayers incense, and your breath praise.
Though you have changed a thousand times, He has not changed once.
