My knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim;
But ’tis enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with him.
— Richard Baxter
State of Grace
Do not content yourselves with being in a state of grace — but be also careful that your graces are kept in vigorous and lively exercise, and that you preach to yourselves the sermons which you study — before you preach them to others.
— Richard Baxter
Love of the Brethern
Think oft of heaven, and what a thing a saint will be in glory, when he shall shine as the stars, and be equal to the angels, and then you will quickly see cause to love them.
— Richard Baxter
Occupations
What have we our time and strength for, but to lay both out for God? What is a candle made but to burn? He that works much lives much.
— Richard Baxter
Near to God
Be of good cheer, Christian, the time is near when God and you shall be as near as you can desire. You shall dwell in His family! You shall then have joy without sorrow — and rest without weariness!
— Richard Baxter
