A Puritan at Heart

Daily quote from the puritans

Grounds for Confidence

My foot hath held his steps. I know well I will get a clearing, and his sentence in my favour, for I have imitated him in the way wherein he has gone before me, and carved out to me, without declining to the right or left-hand. Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips. I made conscience to follow every direction he gave me, I meditate upon the commandments of his lips. He held himself up by God’s steps, that he went not the wrong way, and when he was in the right he sat not up in it. [he continued on it] [James Duraham-Lectures on Job]

Lutherism

The fanatic hates the Word of God and exclaims ‘Bible, Bubel, Babel!’ Christians ought to use the Word, not the hand. The New Testament method of driving out the devil is to convert the heart, and then the devil fails in all his works. [Martin Luther]
