BE
STILL
"Some
preachers want to arouse man’s activity. We want to kill it once
and for all, to show him that he is lost and ruined, and that his
activities are not able to save him.
Some
seek to make the man stand up. We seek to bring him down and make him
feel that he is in the hands of God and that his business is to
submit to God, bow to the claims of Christ, and cry, 'Lord,
save me or I perish.'
We
hold that a man is never so near grace as when he feels that he can
do nothing at all but cry for mercy. But, when he says, 'I
can pray, I can believe, I can do this or that,'
the marks of self-sufficiency are still on his brow."
-preacher Henry Mahan
"It
is better to trust in the LORD
than
to put confidence in man."
-Psalm
118:8 [KJV]
Comments
Let us extol and praise our God in whom we live and move and have our being. And in our Lord Jesus Christ in whom dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily! He is the Savior and we are the ones in need."
