Isaac Watts Quotes

Soul of Christ, sanctify me. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, inebriate me. Water from the side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O good Jesus, hear me. Within Thy wounds hide me. Permit me not to be separated from Thee. From the wicked foe defend me. At the hour of my death call me. And bid me come to Thee. That with Thy saints I may praise Thee For ever and ever. Amen.

Faith never makes herself her own plea, she rests all her argument upon the blood of Christ.

To Christ we are to be always coming; upon Him always relying; to His precious blood always looking.

Look to the cross, think of the cross, meditate on the cross, and then go and set your affections on the world if you can.

Jesus perfected his life and became our Christ. Priceless blood of a god was shed, and he became our Savior; his perfected life was given, and he became our Redeemer; his atonement for us made possible our return to our Heavenly Father, and yet how thoughtless, how unappreciative are most beneficiaries! Ingratitude is a sin of the ages.

To know the Cross is not merely to know our own sufferings. For the Cross is the sign of salvation, and no man is saved by his own sufferings. To know the Cross is to know that we are saved by the sufferings of Christ; more, it is to know the love of Christ Who underwent suffering and death in order to save us. It is, then, to know Christ.

The very act of faith by which we receive Christ is an act of the utter renunciation of self, and all its works, as a ground of salvation. It is really a denial of self, and a grounding of its arms in the last citadel into which it can be driven, and is, in its principle, inclusive of every subsequent act of self-denial by which sin is forsaken or overcome.

Take away the cross of Christ, and the Bible is a dark book.

Our Savior was crucified for our sakes that by His death He might give us life and train and attract us all to endurance. To Him I press on, and to the Father and to the Holy Spirit. I strive to be found true, judging myself unworthy of this world's goods; and yet not I because of the world, but the world because of me. Think of all these things in your heart; follow them with zeal; fight, as you have been commanded, for the truth to the death: For Christ was made 'obedient' even 'to death'

Trust in the power of Christ’s Cross! Receive his reconciling grace and share it!

The cross of Jesus Christ represents the intersection of God's love and God's holiness.

Christ's blood is the great sovereign remedy for sin-sick souls.

Christ is so in love with holiness, that at the price of His blood He will buy it for us.

When God accepts a sinner, He is, in fact, only accepting Christ. He looks into the sinner's eyes, and He sees His own dear Son's image there, and He takes him in.

There is no death of sin without the death of Christ.

We must lose all for Christ in order to gain all for Christ.

To identify with the death of Jesus Christ means that we must die to everything that was never a part of Him.

We have no right to come before God at all, apart from the finished work of Christ.

What shepherd feeds his sheep with his own blood? But Christ feeds us with His own Blood and in all things unites us to Himself.

The Cross is not responsible for God's love; rather it was His love that conceived the Cross.

Do you wish to see God's love? Look at the cross. Do you wish to see God's wrath? Look at the cross.

I am convinced the greatest act of love we can ever perform for people is to tell them about God's love for them in Christ.

There is nothing more certain in Time or Eternity than what Jesus Christ did on the Cross.

We must learn to share the gospel in ways that show it is both GOOD and NEWS. The gospel is about what God has done for us and what we can become in Christ

Blood, always precious, is priceless when it streams from Immanuel's side.
