Quote 4784

Remember that the ordinances of Christ are not His grave wherein he lies but the throne whereon He sits as king of His church; that you should never be above ordinances until you are above temptations; and that they lose not their authority because sometimes we miss their influence; and that they are appointed not only to bring men to but also to build men up in Christ. Francis Ratworth

Ordinances—they are the golden ladder by which the soul climbs up to heaven; they are conduits of the water of life. O how precious should these be to us! They that are against ordinances are against being saved.

The ordinances. These are the conduits Jesus Christ hath instituted and appointed His ordinances to be the means of carrying His nourishing virtue to the soul. The ordinances are the dishes of gold upon which this heavenly meat is brought. Prayer, reading, preaching, meditation, holy conference, the sacrament—in these Christ presents Himself to the soul. He that forsakes these can expect no feeding from Christ.
