• Hebrews 13:5

  Hebrews 13:5   English Standard Version (ESV)
  5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Hebrews 13:5

“A good man was once explaining to a poor humble Christian that, in that precious text, ‘I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee,’ there are five negatives; he said, ‘The Lord seems to say, five times over, “I will not, not, not, leave you; I will never, never forsake you.” There,’ said the learned divine, ‘is not that delightful, to find God saying that five times over?’ ‘Yes,’ said the listener, ‘so it is; but I should have believed it if he had only said it once.’”

[Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XLIII, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1897), p. 191]
