Richard Baxter (c. 1593 – c. 1667), o Backster, fue un actor del siglo XVII, quien trabajó en algunas de las principales compañías de teatro de su época. Su larga carrera ilustra las condiciones durante los difíciles años de transición desde el período del teatro del Renacimiento inglés, a través de la Guerra Civil inglesa y el Interregno, hasta la era de la Restauración.
“When the Son of God comes to rescue us and bring us back to God, He does not find in us the ability to believe.”
“Special mercy arouses more gratitude than universal mercy.”
“Sinners, hear and consider, if you wilfully condemn your souls to bestiality, God will condemn them to perpetual misery.”
“Christ leads me through no darker rooms Than He went through before.”
“If I were but sure that I should live to see the coming of the Lord, it would be the joyfulest tidings in the world. O that I might see His kingdom come! It is the characteristic of His saints to love His appearing, and to look for that blessed hope. "The Spirit and the bride say, Come." "Even so, come, Lord Jesus."”
“As the fire doth mount upwards, and the needle that is touched with the loadstone still turneth to the north, so the converted soul is inclined to God. Nothing else can satisfy him, nor can he find any content and rest but in his love. In a word, all that are converted do esteem and love God better than all the world; and the heavenly felicity is dearer to them than their fleshly prosperity.”
