Even the devil himself contributes in some way to the glory of God, though contrary to his wish.

John Calvin

God is the Creator of the wicked, not of their wickedness; He is the Author of their being, but not the Infuser of their sin.

Arthur W Pink

Fatalism has no place for a personal God.

Loraine Boettner

How unworthy is it for dust and ashes, kneaded together in time, to strut against the Father of eternity! Much more unworthy for that which is nothing, worse than nothing, to quarrel with that which is only being, and equal himself with him that inhabits eternity.

Stephen Charnock

God is the most simple being; for that which is first in nature, having nothing beyond it, cannot by any means be thought to be compounded.

Stephen Charnock

It is impossible to honour God as we ought, unless we know him as he is.

Stephen Charnock

Prayer is not so much an act as it is an attitude—an attitude of dependency, dependency upon God.

Arthur W Pink

True liberty is not the power to live as we please, but to live as we ought!

Arthur W Pink

Jesus Christ came not to make us scholars in naturals, but to endue us with such a knowledge as is in order to eternal happiness, and with such a renewing principle as might make us capable of heaven.

Stephen Charnock

The whole work of regeneration, and conversion, and sanctification, and the efficacy of the death of Christ in the soul, consists in these two things: a taking us off from self, and pitching us upon God and Christ as our end. The terminus a quo is self, the terminus ad quem is Christ.

Stephen Charnock
