More From Samuel Rutherford

Christ be with me, christ within me, christ behind me, christ before me, christ beside me, christ to win me, christ to comfort me and restore me, christ beneath me, christ above me, christ in quiet, christ in danger, christ in hearts of all that love me, christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
Faith Christian Jesus
In the cross is salvation; in the cross is life; in the cross is protection against our enemies; in the cross is infusion of heavenly sweetness; in the cross is strength of mind; in the cross is joy of spirit; in the cross is excellence of virtue; in the cross is perfection of holiness. there is no salvation of soul, nor hope of eternal life, save in the cross.
Jesus Perfection Joy
Here we are told that christ really lives in me, if i have accepted christ as my savior. in other words, we have the words of jesus to the thief of the cross, 'today thou wilt be with me in paradise.' christ can say, 'today thou wilt be with me in paradise,' and mean it. to die is to be with the lord. it is not just an idea, it is a reality. but at the same time, christ, the same christ who gives the promise just as definitely, that when i have accepted christ as my savior, he lives in me.
God Jesus Mean
To know the cross is not merely to know our own sufferings. for the cross is the sign of salvation, and no man is saved by his own sufferings. to know the cross is to know that we are saved by the sufferings of christ; more, it is to know the love of christ who underwent suffering and death in order to save us. it is, then, to know christ.
Wisdom Men Order
If god gives you an abundant harvest of trials, it is a sign of great holiness which he desires you to attain. do you want to become a great saint? ask god to send you many sufferings. the flame of divine love never rises higher than when fed with the wood of the cross, which the infinite charity of the savior used to finish his sacrifice. all the pleasures of the world are nothing compared with the sweetness found in the gall and vinegar offered to jesus christ. that is, hard and painful things endured for jesus christ and with jesus christ.
Jesus Sacrifice Flames
Let me make it quite clear that when christians say the christ-life is in them, they do not mean simply something mental or moral. when they speak of being "in christ" or of christ being "in them", this is not simply a way of saying that they are thinking about christ or copying him. they mean that christ is actually operating through them; that the whole mass of christians are the physical organism through which christ acts--that we are his fingers and muscles, the cells of his body.

Christian Religious Taken
The question is not: how many people take you seriously? how much are you going to accomplish? can you show some results? but: are you in love with jesus?
Christian Jesus Prayer
There always comes, i think, a sort of peak in suffering at which either you win over your pain or your pain wins over you, according as to whether you can, or cannot, call up that extra ounce of endurance that helps you to break through the circle of yourself and do the hitherto impossible. that extra ounce carries you through 'le dernier quart d' heure.' psychologist have a name for it, i believe. christians call it the grace of god.
