Quotes:
From Hudson Taylor’s Biography, Spiritual Secret:
“Bear not a single care thyself, one is too much for thee.
The work is Mine, and Mine alone, they work to rest in Me.”
From Bishop J.C. Ryle’s book Holiness:
“Suppose for a moment that you were allowed to enter heaven without holiness. What would you do? What possible enjoyment could you feel there? To which of all the saints would you join yourself, and by whose side would you sit down? Their pleasures are not your pleasures, their tastes are not your tastes, their character not your character. How could you possibly be happy, if you had not been holy on earth? Think you that such a one would delight to meet David and Paul and John, after a life spent in doing the very things they spoke against? Would he take sweet counsel with them and find that the and they had much in common? Think you, above all, that he would rejoice to meet Jesus, the crucified One, face to face, after cleaving to the sins for which He died, after loving His enemies and despising His friends?”
