Wisdom From Fellow Pilgrims

“Eternal and ever-loving God, we offer thanks for Thy revelation through Jesus Christ, who hast shown us the power of Thy Spirit in human life, and also how we ought to live if we are to be worthy of Thy companionship.  As we follow His insights, may we appreciate the joy which comes in ‘the imitation of Christ’ and ‘the practice of the presence of God.’  We pray in the name of our Intercessor.  Amen””

― From the Writings of John  Bunyan

“God, unto whom all hearts be open, and with whom all will speaketh, and  unto whom no privy thing is hid, I beseech Thee so far to cleanse the intent of mine heart with the unspeakable gift of Thy grace, that I may perfectly love Thee, and worthily praise Thee.  Amen.”

Wisdom From Fellow Pilgrims

The work of the ministry must be acknowledged, by all who believe  the truths of revelation, and hope for happiness beyond the grave, to be the most important in which a human being can possibly engage.  It extends, in its effects and consequences, beyond the boundaries of time, and involves the future happiness or misery of millions, by leading them to felicities or woes which baffle all our calculations…“

Romans 5:8 King James Version (KJV)

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Wisdom From Fellow Pilgrims

The Presence of the Holy Spirit…Christ within…

“You ask, then,  how I knew that He was present, since His ways are past finding out?  Because the Word is living and effective, and as soon as ever He has entered into me, He has aroused my sleeping soul, and stirred and softened and pricked my heart, that hitherto was sick and hard as stone.  He had begun to pluck up and destroy, to build and plant, to water the dry places and shed light upon the dark, to open what was shut, to warm the chill, to make the crooked straight and the rough places plain; so that my soul has blessed the Lord and all that is within me praised His Holy Name“

― From the Writings of Bernard of Clairvaux

Galatians 5:13 King James Version (KJV)

13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

Wisdom From Fellow Pilgrims

“We tend to think of sin as consisting of acts which are done in defiance of conscience or are, whether we know it or not, contrary to God’s command.  “All have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God’ (Romans 3:23) that is the definition of sin– to fall short of the glory of God? And we do not know what the perfection of God is until we have seen it in Christ.  Unless we believe on Him we are bound to be wrong in our whole idea about sin; for apart from that faith we have neither the stimulus nor the capacity to frame the true standard.“

― From the Writings of William Temple
