The Christian is bred by the Word and must be fed by it. William Gurnall
Philippians 1:29-30 "For to you it has been granted for Christ's sake, not only to believe in
Him, but also to suffer for His sake, 30 experiencing the same conflict which you saw i n me,
and now hear to be in me."
Proverbs 30:5-6 "Every word of God is tested; He is a shield to those who take refuge in
Him. 6 Do not add to His words Or He will reprove you, and you will be proved a liar."

Reasons to Keep the Lords Day Holy #1. Keeping the Lord's Day Holy - Introduction
There is no day so convenient or so suited for prayer, for reading God's Word and hearing
it preached, for fellowship with God's children, for taking the Lord's Supper and for being
baptized and reflecting on baptism. If because of the sabbath, you turn your foot from
doing your own pleasure on My holy day, and call the sabbath a delight, the holy day of the
LORD honorable, and honor it, desisting from your own ways, from seeking your own
pleasure and speaking your own word, 14 then you will take delight in the LORD, and I will
make you ride on the heights of the earth; and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob
your father, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken. (Isaiah 58:1314)

We are called servants, to show how we should obey (Luke 12:38), and we are called
soldiers, to show how we should suffer, (2 Tim. 2:3). Henry Smith
Look, as our greatest good comes through the sufferings of Christ, so Gods greatest glory
that He has from His saints comes through their sufferings. Thomas Brooks
The Gospel gets really more advantage by the holy, humble sufferings of one saint, simply
for the Word of righteousness, than by ten thousand arguments used against heretics and
false worship. John Collins
All the virtues that God requires us to exercise, which respect ourselves, are not only
pleasing to Him, but are profitable and conducive to our present wellbeing and tranquility;
such as temperance, chastity, meekness, contentedness, etc. And all the vices He has
forbidden have a direct tendency to our illbeing and disquiet; such as gluttony,
drunkenness, anger, envy, etc. Thomas Fuller
