William Penn QuotesThose people who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants. William Penn A good End cannot sanctify evil Means; nor must we ever do Evil, that Good may come of it. William Penn To be like Christ is to be a Christian. William Penn For death is no more than a turning of us over from time to eternity. William Penn Force may make hypocrites, but it can never make converts. William Penn He that lives to forever, never fears dying. William Penn I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again. William Penn It would be far better to be of no church than to be bitter of any. William Penn Kings in this should imitate God, their mercy should be above their works. William Penn Much reading is an oppression of the mind, and extinguishes the natural candle, which is the reason of so many senseless scholars in the world. William Penn Some are so very studious of learning what was done by the ancients that they know not how to live with the moderns. William Penn Nothing does reason more right, than the coolness of those that offer it: For Truth often suffers more by the heat of its defenders, than from the arguments of its opposers. William Penn O Lord, help me not to despise or oppose what I do not understand. William Penn Passion is a sort of fever in the mind, which ever leaves us weaker than it found us. William Penn Passion is the mob of the man, that commits a riot upon his reason. William Penn Patience and Diligence, like faith, remove mountains. William Penn Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God. William Penn Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it. William Penn Sense shines with a double luster when it is set in humility. An able yet humble man is a jewel worth a kingdom. William Penn Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly; for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood. William Penn The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves. William Penn True godliness does not turn men out of the world, but enables them to live better in it and excites their endeavors to mend it. William Penn The adventure of the Christian life begins when we dare to do what we would never tackle without Christ. William Penn If we better studied and understood God’s creation, this would do a great deal to caution and direct us in our use of it. For how could we find the impudence to abuse the world if we were seeing the great Creator stare us in the face through each and every part of it? William Penn We are inclined to call things by the wrong names. We call prosperity 'happiness', and adversity 'misery' eventhough adversity is the school of wisdom and often the way to eternal happiness. William Penn

John 10:35b the Scripture cannot be broken, Human theology and reasoning is not necessarily correct, but the Bible is. The Bible can only be understood by revelation, and revelation is given by the Spirit of God. God does reveal in His own way. But we only know in part. If we think we know any thing, we do not know it as we ought. We are instructed, by God, to keep seeking Him. The Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth. The truth sets us free. Lies bind us. Whoever seeks Jesus does find Him. Jesus is the truth.
