Sacrament: Quotations from Burning Words

I have, by long and sound experience, found that the due observance of the Sabbath day, and of the duties of it, have been of singular comfort and advantage to me. The observance of the day hath ever had joined to it, a blessing upon the rest of my time; and the week that hath so begun hath been blessed and prosperous to me.— SIR MATTHEW HALE

He who receives a sacrament does not perform a good work, he receives a benefit. -— MARTIN LUTHER

Sacraments, ordained of Christ, are not only badges or tokens of Christian men's profession; but rather they are certain signs of grace, and God's good-will towards us, by the which He doth work invisibly in us, and doth not only quicken, but also strengthen and confirm our faith in Him.— ARTICLES OF METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH
