Text Quotes
Providence is the perpetuity and continuance of creation  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) A man may be a false prophet and yet speak the truth  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Christ does not choose you because you are good, but to make you good  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Times are bad, God is good  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Whatsoever God takes away from His children, He either replaces it with a much greater favor or else gives strength to bear it.  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) As the strongest faith may be shaken, so the weakest, where truth is, is so far rooted that it will prevail. Weakness with watchfulness will stand, when strength with too much confidence fails. Weakness, with acknowledgement of it, is the fittest seat and subject for God to perfect His strength in; for consciousness of our infirmities drives us out of ourselves to Him in whom our strength lies  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Measure not God’s love and favour by your own feeling. The sun shines as clearly in the darkest day as it does in the brightest. The difference is not in the sun, but in some clouds which hinder the manifestation of the light thereof  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Satan gives Adam an apple, and takes away Paradise. Therefore in all temptations let us consider not what he offers, but what we shall lose  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) No sin is so great but the satisfaction of Christ and His mercies are greater; it is beyond comparison. Fathers and mothers in tenderest affections are but beams and trains to lead us upwards to the infinite mercy of God in Christ  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) If Christ has once possessed the affections, there is no dispossessing of him again. A fire in the heart overcomes all fires without  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) In trouble we are prone to forget all that we have heard and read that makes for our comfort. Now what is the reason that a man comes to think of that which otherwise he should never have called to mind? The Holy Spirit brings it to his remembrance; He is a Comforter, bringing to mind useful things at such times when we have most need of them  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) It would be a good contest amongst Christians, one to labor to give no offense, and the other labor to take none. The best of men are severe to themselves, tender over others.  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Sin is not so sweet in the committing as it is heavy and bitter in the reckoning  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) God’s children improve all advantages to advance their grand end; they labour to grow better by blessings and crosses, and to make sanctified use of all things.  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Those that look to be happy must first look to be holy  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) What the heart liketh best, the mind studieth most  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) The depths of our misery can never fall below the depths of mercy  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) God can pick sense out of a confused prayer  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) The wronged side is always the safest  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) What coward would not fight when he is sure of victory?  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) God’s truth always agrees with itself  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) It is atheism to pray and not wait on hope  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Poverty and affliction take away the fuel that feeds pride  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) It is better to go bruised to heaven than sound to hell  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) Death is only a grim porter to let us into a stately palace  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) The way to cover our sin is to uncover it by confession  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) See a flame in a spark, a tree in a seed. See great things in little beginnings  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) When a man is to travel into a far country... one staff in his hand may comfortably support him, but a bundle of staves would be troublesome. Thus a competency of these outward things may happily help us in the way to heaven, whereas abundance may be hurtful  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) The winter prepares the earth for the spring, so do afflictions sanctified prepare the soul for glory  (Richard Sibbes Quotes) God’s children improve all advantages to advance their grand end; they labour to grow better by blessings and crosses, and to make sanctified use of all things  (Richard Sibbes Quotes)
