“Every parting gives a foretaste of death, every reunion a hint of the resurrection.”
~ Arthur Schopenhauer ~
“Our Lord has written the promise of resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in springtime.” ~ Martin Luther ~
“The supernatural birth of Christ, his miracles, his resurrection and ascension, remain eternal truths, whatever doubts may be cast on their reality as historical facts.” ~ David Friedrick Strauss ~
“I have read in Plato and Cicero sayings that are very wise and very beautiful but I never read in either of them, “Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden.” ~ Augustine ~
“Fundamentally, our Lord’s message was Himself. He did not come merely to preach a gospel. He himself is that Gospel. He did not come merely to give bread. He said, “I am the bread.” He did not come merely to shed light. He said, “I am the light.” He did not come merely to show the door, He said, “I am the door.” He did come merely to name a shepherd; He said, “I am the shepherd.” He did not come merely to point the way; He said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” ~ J. Sidlow Baxter ~
