It was wonderful love that Christ should rather die for us than for the angels that fell. They were creatures of a more noble extract, and in all probability might have brought greater revenues of glory to God; yet that Christ should pass by those golden vessels, and make us clods of earth into stars of glory -- Oh, the hyperbole of Christ's love!
Thomas WatsonThe godly have some good in them, therefore the devil afflicts them; and some evil in them, therefore God afflicts them.
