Death

“Do we think walking with God can do us any hurt? Did we ever hear any cry out on their deathbed that they have been too holy, that they have prayed too much, or walked with God too much? No, that which has cut them to the heart has been this, that they have not walked more closely with God; they have wrung their hand and torn their hair to think that they have been so bewitched with the pleasures of the world. Close walking with God will make our enemy (death) be at peace with us. “ The Godly Man’s Picture ” pg. 181”

“Sin has the devil for its father, shame for its companion, and death for its wages.”

“The Scriptures teach us the best way of living, the noblest way of suffering and the most comfortable way of dying.”

“Ye have lost a child; nay, she is not lost to you, who is found in Christ; she is not sent away, but only sent before; like unto a star which, going out of sight, does not die and vanish, but shines in another hemisphere.”

“Heaven is won or lost on earth; the possession is there, but the preparation is here.”
