“We are not bearing our crosses every time we have a headache; an aspirin tablet will take care of that. What is meant is the trouble we would not have if we were not Christians.”

“The purpose of our holy and righteous God was to save His church, but their sin could not go unpunished. It was, therefore, necessary that the punishment for that sin be transferred from those who deserved it but could not bear it, to one who did not deserve it but was able to bear it.”

“The husband is the head of the wife just in so far as he is to her what Christ is to the church. He is to love her as Christ loved the Church—read on—and gave his life for her (Eph. V, 25). The headship, then, is most fully embodied not in the husband we should all wish to be but in him whose marriage is most like a crucifixion; whose wife receives most and gives least, is most unworthy of him—is, in her own mere nature—least loveable. For the Church has no beauty but what the Bridegroom gives her; he does not find, but makes her, lovely.”

“The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us.”

King Jesus is enthroned forever
None else will take his place
Every knee will bow to him
In all the human race
And declare him Lord

His kingdom will remain forever
None else will ever reign
Every enemy will fall
To worship at his name
And declare him Lord

Those who desire to reign with him
Must be bought through the cross
Giving homage to the King
Their assets counted loss
And declare him Lord
