If He makes all things tend to our edification, let us make all things tend to His exultation.
— Thomas Watson
Justification
Justification is the pillar of Christianity. An error about justification is dangerous, like a defect in a foundation. Justification by Christ is a spring of the water of life. To have the poison of corrupt doctrine cast into this spring is damnable.
— Thomas Watson
Love to God
O preserve your love to God – keep it flaming on the altar of your heart! Love is like oil to the wheels – it quickens us in God’s service. Does love grow cool? Make use of ordinances as sacred fuel to keep the holy fire burning.
— Thomas Watson
Experience
The Christian finds that to serve God is to enjoy God. His precepts are not burdens, but privileges – not fetters, but ornaments; and thus, “His yoke is easy and his burden is light.”
— Thomas Watson
Affliction
To know that nothing hurts the godly, is a matter of comfort; but to be assured that all things which fall out shall cooperate for their good, that their crosses shall be turned into blessings, that showers of affliction water the withering root of their grace and make it flourish ore; this may fill their hearts with joy till they run over.
— Thomas Watson
