Quotes by James Hamilton  (?)

“If you'd had all the experiences I've had, you'd know that there are times in life when the most comfortable thing is to do nothing at all. Things happen to you and just let them happen.”
James hamilton

“Hypocrites are very much strangers to the delights and pleasures of religion. And they are altogether so, for it is a joy which they do not intermeddle with. Counterfeit piety can never bring true pleasure. He that acts a part upon a stage, though it may be the part of one that is ever so pleasant, though he may exhibit the pleasantness well, yet he does not experience it. The pleasures of God’s house do not lie in the outer courts, but within the veil.”
James Hamilton, The Pleasantness of a Religious Life

“A hypocrite may have some transitory pleasure in religion from a land-flood of sensible affections, yet he does not have the least taste of the “river of God’s pleasures” (Psalm 36:8).”
James Hamilton, The Pleasantness of a Religious Life
