“Whether men are pleased or not, we will, we must, worship the Lamb that was slain.”
— The Works of the Rev. John Newton, Vol. 2, p. 382.
“By one hour's intimate access to the throne of grace, where the Lord causes his glory to pass before the soul that seeks him, you may acquire more true spiritual knowledge and comfort, than by a day or a week's converse with the best of men, or the most studious perusal of many folios.”
— Letter (February 1772)
