The view of the misery of the damned will double the ardour of the love and gratitude of the saints of heaven.

Jonathan Edwards

God is glorified not only by His glory being seen, but by its being rejoiced in.
JONATHAN EDWARDS

If we make a great show of respect and love to God, in the outward actions, while there is no sincerity in the heart, it is but hypocrisy and practical lying unto the Holy One.
JONATHAN EDWARDS

Love is the sum of all virtue, and love disposes us to good.
JONATHAN EDWARDS

Among the many acts of gratitude we owe to God, it may be accounted one to study and contemplate the perfections and beauties of His work of creation. Every new discovery must necessarily raise in us a fresh sense of the greatness, wisdom, and power of God.
