This is faith: a renouncing of everything we are apt to call our own and relying wholly upon the blood, righteousness and intercession of Jesus.
— John Newton (1725-1807)
Laughter
It is pleasing to the dear God whenever thou rejoicest or laughest from the bottom of thy heart.
— Martin Luther (1483-1546)
Discipleship
Our Lord made discipleship hard and lost many prospective followers because he called them to a pilgrimage, not a parade – to a fight, not to a frolic.
— Vance Havner
Christianity
There never was found in any age of the world, either philosopher or sect, or law or discipline which did so highly exalt the public good as the Christian faith.
— Francis Bacon (1561-1626)
Mercy
Mercy sweetens all God’s other attributes. God’s holiness without mercy, and his justice without mercy, would be terrible.
— Thomas Watson (1620-1686)
