Short pithy gems from the Puritan Matthew Henry:
- We cannot expect too little from man–nor too much from God!
- A life spent in the service of God and communion with Him, is the most pleasant life that anyone can live in this world.
- The Bible is a letter God has sent to us. Prayer is a letter we send to Him.
- We should take heed of pride–it is the sin that turned angels into devils!
- God is either your best friend–or your worst enemy.
- Knowledge is vain and fruitless–which is not reduced to practice.
