Too High
“We can never make too much of Christ. . . . We can never have too high thoughts about Christ, can never love Him too much, trust Him too implicitly, lay too much weight upon Him, and speak too highly in His praise. He is worthy of all the honour that we can give Him. He will be all in heaven. Let us see to it, that He is all in our hearts on earth.”
J.C. Ryle
Lowest Hell
“Those who have been saved from the lowest hell enter into the highest praise.”
James Ryle
Basically Good?

Security and Supply
“Christians, you know your affairs below have not been steered and managed by your own wisdom, but that orders have been given from heaven for your security and supply from day to day. ‘I know, O Lord’, says the prophet, ‘that a man’s life is not his own; it is not for a man to direct his steps’ (Jeremiah 10:23).”
John Flavel
The Luster
“The meanest of your present, will add to the luster of your future condition.”

No Marks
“Remember when wants pinch hard, that these fix no marks of God’s hatred upon you. He has dealt no worse with you than he did with his own Son.”
John Flavel
Atrocious Sin
“When we think of an atrocity we think of the Holocaust, slavery and other atrocious acts against humanity. Since God is the supreme, infinite worth of the universe, how much more atrocious is our sin against him than the sins committed against humanity. “
