Matthew Henry
I thank Thee first because I was never robbed before; second, because although they took my purse they did not take my life; third, because although they took my all, it was not much; and fourth because it was I who was robbed, and not I who robbed.
Henry quotes
Were a man to live as long as Methuselah, and to spend all his days in the highest delights sin can offer, one hour of the anguish and tribulation that must follow, would far outweigh them.
Henry
It is not fit the public trusts should be lodged in the hands of any, till they are first proved and found fit for the business they are to be entrusted with.




Henry Matthew quotes
Many a dangerous temptation comes to us in fine gay colours that are but skin-deep.
Henry Matthew
Better late than never.
Matthew Henry quotes
To fish in troubled waters.
