Truly God wants a real union of all born-again souls, but that union can be realized only on the basis of the shed blood of Calvary’s Lamb. Any other union is an abomination to our Holy God.

Louis Talbot (Pastor, 1899 – 1976)

My friend, if you live a life that is dedicated to the service of the Lord Jesus Christ, it is absolutely impossible for you to go out of this world through the door of death until His hand puts the key in the lock, and opens that door. And when the Son of God returns to take away His church, the dead in Christ shall rise. He will take those keys and open every grave in every cemetery that contains the dust of the saints. It matters not to me where I am buried — or what they do with my body, if the Lord tarries. They may embalm or bury me — I care not; for when He puts in the key and comes for His own, I shall arise!

Louis Talbot (Pastor, 1899 – 1976)

Truly, when I think of the flaming throne of God, and of the fact that one day I am going to stand in His presence, who is thrice holy, before whom even the sinless angels veil their faces. I should tremble with fear, but for Calvary! When I remember that He who “was dead” and is “alive for evermore” died that my sin, which would unfit me for His presence, might be washed away, then I have no fear. He has the keys of Hades and of the grave. And because he lives. I too shall live!

Louis Talbot (Pastor, 1899 – 1976)

“But that righteousness which God gives with everlasting life is upon those who believe and upon those only. Man must make the choice; he must meet the condition – the personal acceptance of the Lord Jesus Christ as Redeemer and Saviour. My brother, have you believed? Have you taken Christ as your own personal Saviour?”

Louis Talbot (Pastor, 1899 – 1976)

Enthusiasm is a virtue rarely to be met with in seasons of calm and unruffled prosperity. Enthusiasm flourishes in adversity, kindles in the hour of danger, and awakens to deeds of renown. The terrors of persecution only serve to quicken the energy of its purposes. It swells in proud integrity, and, great in the purity of its cause, it can scatter defiance amidst hosts of enemies.

Thomas Chalmers (Minister, 1780 – 1847)

The human mind feels restless and dissatisfied under the anxieties of ignorance. It longs for the repose of conviction; and to gain this repose it will often rather precipitate its conclusions than wait for the tardy lights of observation and experiment. There is such a thing, too, as the love of simplicity and system,–a prejudice of the understanding which disposes it to include all the phenomena of nature under a few sweeping generalities,–an indolence which loves to repose on the beauties of a theory rather than encounter the fatiguing detail of its evidences.

Thomas Chalmers (Minister, 1780 – 1847)

Thousands of men breathe, move, and live; pass off the stage of life and are heard of no more. Why? They did not a particle of good in the world; and none were blest by them, none could point to them as the instrument of their redemption; not a line they wrote, not a word they spoke, could be recalled, and so they perished–their light went out in darkness, and they were not remembered more than the insects of yesterday. Will you thus live and die, O man immortal? Live for something.

Thomas Chalmers (Minister, 1780 – 1847)

Prayer does not enable us to do a greater work for God. Prayer is a greater work for God.

Thomas Chalmers (Minister, 1780 – 1847)

I want to feel my own nothingness, I want to give myself up in absolute resignation to God, to lie prostrate and passive at His feet, with no other disposition in my heart than that of merging my will into His will, and no other language in my mouth than that of prayer for the perfecting of His strength in my weakness.

Thomas Chalmers (Minister, 1780 – 1847)

Write your name in kindness, love and mercy on the hearts of the thousands you come in contact with year by year, and you will never be forgotten.

Thomas Chalmers (Minister, 1780 – 1847)
