Jesus Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.
— Thomas Watson
Eternal Security
When God calls a man, He does not repent of it. God does not, as many friends do, love one day, and hate another; or as princes, who make their subjects favorites, and afterwards throw them into prison. This is the blessedness of a saint; his condition admits of no alteration. God’s call is founded upon His decree, and His decree is immutable. Acts of grace cannot be reversed. God blots out His people’s sins, but not their names.
— Thomas Watson
Meditation
A Christian without meditation is like a soldier without weapons, or a workman without tools.
— Thomas Watson
Christians
The saints of God are called His hidden ones – Psalm 83:3. Why so? Not only because they are hid in God’s decree, and hid in Christ’s wounds, but oftentimes God hides them in a time of danger and calamity. He reserved to Himself seven thousand that had not bowed the knee to Baal. The prophet knew not where there was one, but God knew there were seven thousand.
— Thomas Watson
Joy
The more we enjoy of God, the more we are ravished with delight.
— Thomas Watson
