D.A. Carson
“Clearly Jesus read the Old Testament in an integrated way, with himself at the center of it. From the New Testament records written by Jesus’ immediate disciples and heirs, we can gain a pretty comprehensive glimpse of his self-understanding in this regard. He saw himself not only as the rightful messianic king in the line of David, but also as the suffering servant who would be wounded for our transgressions. He knew he was not only the atoning sacrifice but also the priest who offered the sacrifice. He was not only the obedient Son who discharged the mission his Father assigned him, but also the eternal Word made flesh who disclosed the Father perfectly to a generation of rebellious image-bearers. And so much more. And all of these things we should see, too, and bow in solemn, joyful worship.”
D.A. Carson, For the Love of God: A Daily Companion for Discovering the Riches of God's Word

“From time immemorial prayer has been spoken of as the breath of the soul.”
Ole Hallesby, Prayer

Thomas Watson
“The sum and definition of religion is, be rich in works of mercy, be helpful to the bodies and souls of others. Scatter your golden seeds; let the lamp of your profession be filled with the oil of charity. Be merciful in giving and forgiving. ‘Be ye merciful, as your heavenly Father is merciful’.”
Thomas Watson, A Body of Practical Divinity: Containing A Body of Divinity, The Ten Commandments, and the Lord's Prayer

Matthew Henry
“It is better to live poorly on the fruits of God’s goodness, than live plentifully on the products of our own sin.”
Matthew Henry, Zondervan NIV Matthew Henry Commentary

Robert Letham
“As the Father is fountain and the Son is river, we are said to drink the Spirit.”
Robert Letham, The Holy Trinity: In Scripture, History, Theology, and Worship, Revised and Expanded
