“What the law could not do, not from any deficiency in itself, but owing to the depravity of man, God has fully accomplished.  Man has no righteousness of his own which he can plead, but God has provided a righteousness for him.  This righteousness, infinitely superior to that which he originally possessed, is provided solely by grace, and received solely by faith.  It is placed to the account of the believer for his justification, without the smallest respect either to his previous or subsequent obedience.”  Robert Haldane  (1764-1842)

“Fear ye not. What shall they fear, above whose head the Gospel-standard floats?  Faith reads thereon, ‘If God be for us, who can be against us?’  Rom. 8:31.  But use no fruitless efforts.  The waves are deep.  The foes are strong.  There is no help in self.  ‘Stand still.’  Leave all to God.”  Henry Law  (1797-1844)

“It is by no means shameful to trust God. On the contrary, it is a point of honor with good men to trust in Him who is faithful and true; and if they have to suffer for it they do so joyfully. Gird yourselves, therefore, with a holy courage, you who are learning through grace to live upon the promise of God by faith.”  Charles H. Spurgeon  (1834-1892)
