Lord's Day 36 (2018). Thomas Shepard.

[NaphtaliPress]

Lord's Day 36 (2018). “It is easy to demonstrate by Scripture and argument, as well as by experience, that religion is just as the Sabbath is, and decays and grows as the Sabbath is esteemed: the immediate honor and worship of God, which is brought forth and swaddled in the first three commandments, is nursed up and suckled in the bosom of the Sabbath." Thomas Shepard. "Christ is born, is circumcised, dies, rises again for us every day in the preaching of the Gospel." Danæu. "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24.

 

[Regi Addictissimus]

"Thesis 1. Time is one of the most precious blessings which worthless man in this world enjoys; a jewel of inestimable worth; a golden stream dissolving, and, as it were, continually running down by us, out of one eternity into another, yet seldom taken notice of until it is quite passed away from us." - Thomas Shepard Theses Sabbaticae

Amen to that!
