More From Samuel Rutherford

He that will have a cake out of the wheat must tarry the grinding. have i not tarried? ay, the grinding; but you must tarry the bolting. have i not tarried? ay, the bolting; but you must tarry the leavening. still have i tarried. ay, to the leavening; but here's yet in the word 'hereafter' the kneading, the making of the cake, the heating of the oven, and the baking; nay, you must stay the cooling too, or you may chance to burn your lips.

And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.

That, they never could lay their heads upon their pillows; that, they never could tolerate the idea of their wives laying their heads upon their pillows; that, they never could endure the notion of their children laying their heads upon their pillows; in short, that there never more could be, for them or theirs, any laying of heads upon pillows at all, unless the prisoner's head was taken off.
Children Taken Ideas
When we speak of faith—the faith that can move mountains—we are not speaking of faith in general but of faith in the lord jesus christ. faith in the lord jesus christ can be bolstered as we learn about him and live our religion. the doctrine of jesus christ was designed by the lord to help us increase our faith.

My life is like a faded leaf, my harvest dwindled to a husk: truly my life is void and brief and tedious in the barren dusk; my life is like a frozen thing, no bud nor greenness can i see: yet rise it shall - the sap of spring; o jesus, rise in me.

God hides nothing. his very work from the beginning is revelation--a casting aside of veil after veil, a showing unto men of truth after truth. on and on from fact divine he advances, until at length in his son jesus he unveils his very face.
God Jesus Son
