Quotes from the same author

When Christ was about to leave the world, He made His will. His soul He committed to His father; His body He bequeathed to Joseph to be decently interred; His clothes fell to the soldiers; His mother He left to the care of John; but what should He leave to His poor disciples that had left all for Him? Silver and gold He had none; but He left them that which was infinitely better, His peace.
 Matthew Henry
Christ died. He left a will in which He gave His soul to His Father, His body to Joseph of Arimathea, His clothes to the soldiers, and His mother to John. But to His disciples, who had left all to follow Him, He left not silver or gold, but something far better-His PEACE!
 Matthew Henry
We must believe that He is able to do what He will, wise to do what is best, and good, according to His promise, to do what is best for us, if we love Him, and serve Him.
 Matthew Henry
I would think it a greater happiness to gain one soul to Christ than mountains of silver and gold to myself.
 Matthew Henry
No man will say, "There is no God" 'till he is so hardened in sin that it has become his interest that there should be none to call him to account.
