Welcome to Gleanings of Grace, a compilation of sovereign grace articles.


 I collected bit by bit numerous articles by various authors and compiled them together (in no particular order). My desire is that He may be glorified. My thought was to make more Christ centered articles easily accessible to friends and others. My prayer is to set before brethren reflections that exhort, comfort, challenge, or even rebuke; and that His sheep not yet in His fold may hear His call.

As God plants these seeds, may it please Him that we may follow and gather and partake of His grace. I pray that we may come in all humilty and that God blinds us to ignorance and presses in our hearts that which is truth.

God's most stubborn enemy! By Jonathan Edwards

"I hate pride and arrogance!" Proverbs 8:13

Pride is a person having too high an opinion of himself.

Pride is the first sin that ever entered into the universe, and the last sin that is rooted out.

Pride is the worst sin. It is the most secret of all sins. There is no other matter in which the heart is more deceitful and unsearchable. Alas, how much pride the best have in their hearts!

Pride is God's most stubborn enemy! There is no sin so much like the devil as pride. It is a secret and subtle sin, and appears in a great many shapes which are undetected and unsuspected. - Jonathan Edwards

"The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: They will not go unpunished." Prov. 16:5
