“Live in the blood of Jesus by faith, and like a miraculous dew, it will cause the virtuous germ of thy new nature to spring up and expand. It will flow like oil into the flame of thy love, and will assist humility in obtaining the victory in thee. It will render thee merciful, and forgiving, and patient. It will make the vain delights of the present world as nothing to thee, and give the courage and fortitude in the distresses of life, as well as at death. Yes, in whatever way thou regards it, it is true what the Scriptures say, that “life is in the blood” (Leviticus 17:11).”
- Friedrich Wilhelm Krummacher, Gems of F.W. Krummacher“The Lord shut the door upon Noah. When this was done Noah was removed from the view of those who were left behind; & thus it is with all who enter into the true ark. The world knows them no more. They travel incognito. Their life is hid with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). But what does it concern them, whether or not the world is able to comprehend & value them, it is enough for them that “the Lord knows them that are His” (2 Timothy 2:19)”
