God has not asked you to earn heaven by your holiness, but to show love and thankfulness to Christ who earned it for you.
—William Gurnall, The Christian in Complete Armour, 2:205
It is strange beyond comprehension that there are those who, professing to subscribe to the truth that only those who believe in Christ will be saved, and that all others are bound for eternal hell, yet in no way exert themselves to persuade men to depart from the road that leads to destruction and walk the road to heaven.

Jesus was loyal to his Father, and he is shepherding us.
If you have been a great sinner, I say, let not that hinder you from coming to Him, and closing with Him; for the greater sinner you be, the more free grace is magnified in reclaiming you. I may speak this from my own experience…
—Scottish Martyr James Stuart, Last Speech
“When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers . . . ” Psalm 8:3
Galaxies with fingers.
