Old School Thinkers

"We ought to be willing to suffer the loss of all worldly goods without regret."
-John Calvin

"'You’ve lost your homes. You’ve lost maybe loved ones. You’ve lost this, you’ve lost that.’ He says, ‘Well, tell me. Have you lost Christ’s love? Have you lost the Holy Spirit? You haven’t lost anything. You value these things too highly. What your faith is about is your possession of Christ.'"
-Dr. S. Donald Fortson III on St. Augustine in The City of God

"We have to tell of an earnest Savior, an earnest heaven, and an earnest hell. How earnest we ought to be when we remember that in our work we are dealing with souls that are immortal, with sin that is eternal in its effects, with pardon that is infinite, and with terrors and joys that are to last forever and ever!"
-C.H. Spurgeon from The Soul Winner
