Neil Arnot Quotes

ARNOT, Neil Quotes

(1788-1874), Scottish physician

Confession

Confession of sin comes from the offer of mercy.—Mercy displayed causes confession to flow, and confession flowing opens the way for mercy.—If I have not a contrite heart, God's mercy will never be mine; but if God had not manifested his mercy in Christ, I could never have had a contrite heart.

Dress

If honor be your clothing, the suit will last a lifetime; but if clothing be your honor, it will soon be worn threadbare.
