"In the New Covenant we need to understand that it is all about faith. Faith in what? Faith in what has already happened at the Cross ... many Christians think that faith is something we do to move God. But our faith does not move God. Grace moved God to act generously on our behalf long before you had faith. God had already moved at the Cross by grace to give us what we need prior to us ever having any.
Grace moved God to do everything before you ever had faith. Our faith does not make God respond to what God has already done by grace at the Cross".

"The man who never reads will never be read. He who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own ... You need to read" - C H Spurgeon. "To fail to learn from the pulpit of the past is to impoverish that of the present" - Tony Sargent
