“Though shown up by so many miracles, ungodliness still persisted; though harried by so many torments, weakness still refused to give in; let it be admitted, therefore, that divinity must have been at work. After all, how could perishable dust endure against such monstrous tortures, unless the Lord were dwelling in it? In all these events, you see, that one is to be acknowledged, that one glorified, that one praised, who gave him faith when he was first called, and when he suffered at the last gave him strength. Do you want to make sure that each is a gift? Listen to the apostle Paul: To you, he says, has it been granted for Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him (Phil 1:29).” (Page 29)
“The tower and resources, faith and patience; the tower is faith, the resources are patience. If people lack the patience to put up with the evils of this world, they are short on resources.” (Page 291)
“But because in the unity of God there is both Father and Son and Holy Spirit, let Christ’s divinity hold on to the unity, while his humanity takes on the mediation.” (Page 155)
“Now, though, he’s very angry, very angry with the wicked who prosper. Don’t be jealous of them, don’t wish to be like them. It’s better to be whipped than damned.” (Page 211)
“worldly terms is in great danger of being corrupted by that good fortune, not in body but in soul” (Page 287)
