QUOTE (Horatius Bonar) – July 31
July 31, 2014
“It is not opinions that man needs: it is TRUTH. It is not theology; it is God. It is not religion: it is Christ. It is not literature and science; but the knowledge of the free love of God in the gift of His only-begotten Son.”
~ Horatius Bonar
In honor of Horatius Bonar, Scottish preacher and hymn writer, who died on this day in 1889.

I tried to find out what hymns he wrote, but had no luck.
I’ve been blessed by the words of Horatius Bonar since I first read some of his hymns in a devotional. Praise God for this faithful man of God! And thank you for the post.
