I want to buy a plain book just to keep all the good quotes, a quote bank or something.
The way to be truly happy is to be truly human
The way to be truly human is to be truly godly
-J.I. Packer-
One that loves the Lord must exhibit:
"praise in prosperity
patience in adversity
peace for the future"
-John Calvin-
"The Atheist most embarrassing moment is when he feel deeply thankful about something but do not know who to thank to"
"An atheist has reason but no hope for his reason
A hypocrite has hope but no reason for his hope
A Christian has both, the reason for his hope and hope for his reason"
"Do not be afraid of hard work for Christ; a terrible reckoning awaits those who have an easy time in the ministry, but a great reward is in reserve for those who endure all things for the elect's sake."
-Spurgeon, 1881-
"Churches do not grow by addition; they grow by nutrition."
"I wish Thy way.
But when in me myself would rise
and long for something otherwise
Then, Holy One, take sword and spear
and slay"
"It is good that we should have to submit to what we do not understand. It teaches us the laws of faith and hope.
It is good that we should have to do what we should rather not. in circumstances not of our choice.
It is good that there should be always something to prick us on, something to remind us that we are in an enemy's country, belong to a marching column.
It is good that we should meet with checks and failures in what we undertake, to keep us humble and prayerful.
All these things belong to sowing tears.
God seems to have laid out the order of things in His church, not for a general and brilliant triumph but for the hidden sanctification of the individual souls which compose it."
Prayer in faith, Jane Erskine Stuart
"yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin.
Each victory will help you some others to win.
Fight manfully onward, dark passions subdue.
Look ever to Jesus, He'll carry you through.
Ask the Savior to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you.
He is willing to aid you
He will carry you through."
-H. R. Palmer-

Tambah satu lagi dari khotbah Pa Gideon: "The heart of education is the education of the heart" :)
Wah, wah, kalo elu jadi hamba Tuhan kayanya khotbahnya bakal kaya' Pa Gideon, penuh dengan quote :p
Pak Gideon teh kayak pastur gua, Andrew Lim. Gaya dan cara dia khotbah penuh passion, penuh hikmat, penuh quote! penuh kata2 sulit.
Andrew pernah bilang, I always use difficult words, because I do not underestimate my audience but I am sure you can guess the meaning of the word through my sentences. Dialah yang membuat gua jadi suka buku...quote2 yang menginspirasi...
Gua seneng banget denger khotbah Pa Gideon. Dan kalo ngobrol sama dia bisa ga berenti2 lho! :P
Btw, thanks to you also. Semenjak gua baca buku Elisabeth Elliot, gua jadi suka ngeringkas buku, including quotes2nya :)
