Christ is a jewel more worth than a thousand worlds, as all know who have Him. Get Him, and get all; miss Him and miss all.
— Thomas Brooks
Sorrow
Godly sorrow is a gift from God. No hand but a divine hand can make the heart soft and tender under the sight and sense of sin.
— Thomas Brooks
Civil Disobedience
When the commands of authority run cross to the commands of God, the commands of God must be obeyed, though the greatest authority under heaven should be displeased and enraged. God never gave the greatest authority in the world any authority to act contrary to His commands. Disobedience to unlawful commands is no disobedience.
— Thomas Brooks
There Is a God
He that doth not believe that there is a God, is more vile then a devil. To deny there is a God, is a sort of atheism that is not to be found in hell.
— Thomas Brooks
Faith
Faith has an influence upon all other graces. It is like a silver thread that runs through a chain of pearls; it puts strength and vivacity into all other graces.
— Thomas Brooks
