A Puritan at Heart

Daily quote from the puritans

The importance of faith

It should be very solemnizing when one reflects on the nearing of death and eternity. I am as old now as my father was when I was ordained the minister of Kilmany. Let us be awake to the realities before us and above us. I feel more and more the fundamental and all-pervading importance of faith. Let us take God at his word, and we shall believe that Christ’s blood washeth from all sin; and that He hath made Him sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. With confidence in these sayings we shall not only have peace and joy, but all the principles within us of new obedience. The benefit of the sacrifice and the gift of the Spirit are inseparable.  [Thomas Chalmers]

Pray unceasingly for sanctification

Pray unceasingly for the progress of His work in your heart…Never let go your aspirings..Oh! with what unceasing progress towards perfection should we be enabled to advance did we cast all self-seeking and self-confidence away from us–did we consent to be altogether guided by His strength, and be altogether accepted in His pure and unspotted righteousness. [Thomas Chalmers]
