Wisdom of the Ages – Ichabod Spencer

Wisdom of the Ages

Ichabod Spencer

“To cut off the sinner from all reliance upon himself, his merits and his powers; and throw him, naked and helpless, into the hands of the Holy Spirit to lead him to Christ in faith; should be the one great aim of the ministry”
Ichabod Spencer

It is in Christ alone where the strength and the power of life reside; all other resources are miserable, fleeting and wretched. They that live in the flesh cannot please God. The woman at the well came to know that Jesus is the well from which flows the river of His life into the lost and barren of this world.

“He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said,
out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water”
John 7:38

Wisdom of the Ages – Charles Spurgeon

Wisdom of the Ages

Spurgeon

“Urgently we do need a revival of personal godliness. This is, indeed; the secret of church prosperity. When individuals fall from their steadfastness, the church is tossed to and fro; when personal faith is steadfast, the church abides true to her Lord”
– Charles Spurgeon

“Watch ye, stand fast in the faith…”
1 Corinthians 16:13
