GOD AS A FRIEND OR ENEMY

There is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother – Proverbs 18:24

He was turned to be their enemy – Isiah 63:10

God is the sweetest friend, but the worst enemy. – Thomas Watson

I would rather be in hell with God than in heaven without him, and it were far safer for me. – John Trapp

COMMENDATION

The praise of them that do well – 1 Peter 2:14

Now I praise you, brethren … but … 1 Corinthians 11:2,3

Only a Christian of strong grace can bear the strong wince of commendation without the spiritual intoxication of pride. – William Jenkyn

To commend a man with ‘but’ is a wound instead of a commendation. – John Trapp
