Daily Quotes for Saturday, October 21, 2023

1. "If sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies. And if they will perish, let them perish with our arms around their knees, imploring them to stay. If hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for." 
2. "Moreover, if Satan cannot destroy a Christian, how often has he spoilt his usefulness? Many a believer has fallen, not to break his neck - that is impossible - but he has broken some important bone and he has gone limping to the grave." 
3. "The way to stronger faith usually lies along the rough road of sorrow. Affliction is the best piece of furniture in my house, it is the best book in the minster's library." 
4. "That old truth that Calvin preached, that Augustine preached, that Paul preached, is the truth that I must preach today, or else be false to my conscience and my God. I cannot shape the truth; I know of no such thing as paring off the rough edges of doctrine. John Knox's gospel is my gospel. That which thundered through Scotland must thunder through England again."
