The enemies are permitted to defile the sanctuary because of the abominations practised in it. Under the type of a chain is shewed the miserable captivity of all order of men. Ezekiel 7 Preface - The majesty and grace of Christ's kingdom. The duty of the church, and the benefits thereof. Psalms 45 Daily Light - Morning Sit still, my daughter. Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be faint-hearted. - Be still, and know that I am God. - Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? - The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. Mary...sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word. - Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength. - Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. His heart is established. He that believeth shall not make haste.

Thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no. When I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love...yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine. - Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth. Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: but rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. - Our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. Jn. 13.7; Deu. 8.2 Ezek. 16.8; He. 12.6 1 Pe. 4.12-13; 2 Co. 4.17-18 A Puritans Catechism Q 15 - Did all mankind fall in Adam's first transgression?

The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of Baptism Chapter 29 PARAGRAPH 1 Baptism is an ordinance of the New Testament, ordained by Jesus Christ, to be unto the party baptized, a sign of his fellowship with him, in his death and resurrection; of his being engrafted into him;1 of remission of sins;2 and of giving up into God, through Jesus Christ, to live and walk in newness of life.3 1 Rom. 6:3–5; Col. 2:12; Gal. 3:27 2 Mark 1:4; Acts 22:16 3 Rom. 6:4 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings ...because as he is, so are we in this world. 1 John 4 v 17 If you love an absent person, you will love their picture. What is it that the sailor's wife keeps so closely wrapped in a napkin, laid up in her drawer among sweet smelling flowers? She takes it out morning and evening, and gazes at it through her tears. It is the picture of her absent husband. She loves it because it is like him. It has many imperfections, but still it is like him. Believers are the pictures of God in this world. The Spirit of Christ dwells in them. They walk as He walked. True, they are full of imperfections; still they are true copies. If you love Him, you will love them; you will make them your bosom friends.
