Jeremiah Burroughs on Hearing and Practicing God’s Word

“If you would sanctify the name of God in hearing His Word, turn it into practice, or otherwise the name of God is blasphemed, or at least is taken in vain by you if you do not turn what you hear into practice.”

Jeremiah Burroughs on Preparing to Hear God’s Word

Posted by Bluegrass Endurance | Labels: , | Posted On Thursday, August 8, 2019 at 5:30 AM

“There must be a preparation of the soul so that when you come to hear you may receive the Word with all readiness.  The Soul must be made ready.  Acts 17:11 “These were more noble than those of Thessalonica, in that they received the Word with all readiness of mind.””

"To hear and not to meditate is unfruitful. We may hear and hear, but it is like putting a thing into a bag with holes."

John Newton on Being only Hearers of the Word

“In the first place, be cautious that you do not degenerate into the spirit of a mere hearer, so as to place the chief stress of your profession upon running hither and thither after preachers.”

Thomas Watson on Worship and the Hearing of God's Word

Posted by Bluegrass Endurance | Labels: , , | Posted On Thursday, January 10, 2013 at 7:00 AM


"Many come to the word only to feast their ears; they like the melody of the voice, the mellifluous sweetness of the expression, the newness of the notion, Acts xvii. 21. This is to love the garnishing of the dish more than the food; this is to desire to be pleased, rather than edified. Like a woman that paints her face, but neglects her health: so they paint and adorn themselves with curious speculations, but neglect their soul's health. This hearing doth neither sanctify the heart, nor the sabbath.
Thomas Watson
