Death to the saint is the end of terrors, the commencement of glory. Charles Spurgeon

May free grace and dying love again be the music that refreshes the church and makes her heart exceeding glad. Charles Spurgeon

You cannot be more accepted than you already are in Christ, since He has already done it all for you! Charles R. Swindoll
