Thus is Jesus in all respects fitted for his mighty work of redeeming. He is very man and very God. He is the seed of the woman, the seed of Abraham, the seed of David, the son of Mary, yet God over all, blessed forever. Thus He can bear our sins; He can sympathize with our sorrows; He can fight our battles; He can love as a man, a fellow man, bone of our bone, and flesh of our flesh.

Horatius Bonar

Horatius Bonar

Horatius Bonar

Horatius Bonar
Less, less of self each day,
And more, my God, of Thee!

Horatius Bonar
I praise the God of grace;
I trust His truth and might;
He calls me His, I call Him mine.
My God, my joy and light

Horatius Bonar
In all unbelief there are these two things: a good opinion of one's self, and a bad opinion of God.

Horatius Bonar
Do not heed the jar of man's warring opinions. Let God be true and every man a liar. The Bible is the Bible still. If any man lack wisdom, let him ask of God. You have an unction from the Holy One, and you know all things.
