Sermon Quotes from The Bruised Reed

There was no abasement ever so deep as Christ’s was, in a double regard.  First, None ever went so low as he, for he suffered the wrath of God, and bore upon him the sins of us all; none was ever so low.  And then in another respect his abasement was greatest because He descended from the highest top of glory; and for Him to be man, to be a servant, to be a curse, to suffer the wrath of god, to be the lowest of all – Lord, wither doest Thou descend?  – Richard Sibbes, The Bruised Reed

Shall God be abased and man proud?  – Richard Sibbes, The Bruised Reed

There is more mercy in Christ than sin in us. – Richard Sibbes, The Bruised Reed
