Quotes

Today I just want to share a bunch of my favourite quotes... a lot are on the theme of the cross, and others are just random quotes I found here and there :)



"Begin as you mean to go on, and go on as you began, and let the Lord be all in all to you."
C.H. Spurgeon


"No one who has walked in Christ’s presence will ever be allowed to strut."
Jamie Buckingham


“He who knows not the Christ of Calvary knows not God, and He who does not thus know, knows not anything that is worth knowing.”
R.E. March


“All His thoughts, emotions, actions, utterances, miracles, and intercessions were for us. He trod the road of sorrow on our behalf. Christ everywhere and every way is our Christ.”
C.H. Spurgeon


"Only one act of pure love, unsullied by any taint of ulterior motive has ever been performed in the history of the world, namely the self-giving of God in Christ on the cross of undeserving sinners. That is why, if we are looking for a definition of love, we should look not in a dictionary, but at Calvary." John R. Stott


“I see more and more that the one thing needed is to die to our own will and to enter into and live in God’s will… Our great difficulty is self-occupation; our cure is self-oblivion.”
Andrew Murray


“… Seek that every good thing you have may be an abiding thing. May your character not be writing in the sand but an inscription upon the rock! May your faith be no “baseless fabric of a vision,” but may it be built of material able to endure that awful fire which shall consume the wood, hay, and stubble of the hypocrite. May you be rooted and grounded in love. May your convictions be deep, your love real, your desires earnest. May your whole life be so settled and established that all the blasts of hell and all the storms of earth shall never be able to remove you.”
C.H. Spurgeon
