Baxter on Nature



"...nature must be read as one of God’s books, which is purposely written for the revelation of himself. The Holy Scripture is the easier book: when you have first learned from it God, and his will, as to the most necessary things, address yourselves to the study of his works, and read every creature as a Christian and a divine. If you see not yourselves, and all things, as living, and moving, and having being in God, you see nothing, whatever you think you see." Richard Baxter, The Reformed Pastor

I forgot that quote was even in the book, but it's a great one! How is Reformed Pastor going?
