“The cumulative testimony of the four Gospels is that when Jesus Christ sees the fallenness of the world all about him, his deepest impulse, his most natural instinct, is to move toward that sin and suffering, not away from it.”
Dane C. Ortlund, Gentle and Lowly: The Heart of Christ for Sinners and Sufferers

William Faulkner
“You don’t love because: you love despite; not for the virtues, but despite the faults.”
William Faulkner

“Thomas Goodwin said, “Christ is love covered over in flesh.”
Dane C. Ortlund, Gentle and Lowly: The Heart of Christ for Sinners and Sufferers

“This prophecy against Eli emphasizes that you can end up in grave sin by thinking it very important to be nice to people. How easy it is to practice a gutless compassion that never wants to offend anyone, that equates niceness with love and thereby ignores God's law and essentially despises his holiness. We do not necessarily seek God's honor when we spare human feelings.”
Dale Ralph Davis, Davis's Commentaries on Joshua, Judges, 1 and 2 Samuel

“The Christian who walks with the Lord and keeps constant communion with Him will see many reason for rejoicing and thanksgiving all day long.”
Warren Wiersbe
