Matthew

“There is a great deal of duty that husband and wife owe to one another, such as to instruct, admonish, pray, watch over one another, and be continual helpers to each other in order to their everlasting happiness; they must also patiently bear with the infirmities of each other.”
― Richard Baxter, The Godly Home

“The more they love each other, the more they participate in each other’s griefs, and one or the other will be frequently under some sort of suffering.”
― Richard Baxter, The Godly Home

“The vigor and power and comfort of our spiritual life depends on our mortification of deeds of the flesh.”
― Richard Baxter

“God never saved any man for being a preacher, nor because he was an able preacher; but because he was a justified, sanctified man, and consequently faithful in his Master’s work. Take heed, therefore, to yourselves first, that you be that which you persuade your hearers to be, and believe that which you persuade them to believe, and heartily entertain that Savior whom you offer to them.”
― Richard Baxter, The Essential Works of Richard Baxter
