Who Didn't Say It?

All the following quotations are real but the speakers I have assigned are incorrect. They didn't say these things...though if you read carefully they have probably come awful close.

"Sarcasm is a dangerous weapon to employ, but its use is fully warranted in exposing the ridiculous pretensions of error, and is often quite effective in convincing men of the folly and unreasonableness of their ways." Mark Driscoll
"Cultivate the holy habit of seeing the hand of God in everything that happens to you." RC Sproul
"...amid the various denominations, we must not lose sight of the mystical and essential oneness of all the people of God. Here too we must walk by faith and not by sight. We should view all things from the Divine standpoint: we should contemplate that Church which Christ loved and for which He gave Himself as it exists in the eternal purpose and everlasting counsels of the blessed Trinity. We shall never see the unity of the Bride, the Lamb's wife, visibly manifested before our outward eyes until we behold her descending out of Heaven 'having the glory of God.' But meanwhile it is both our duty and privilege to enter into God's ideal, to perceive the spiritual unity of His saints, and to own that unity by receiving into our affections all who manifest something of the image of God." CJ Mahaney
"Jehovah... desires only our happiness, and never requires one thing which has not a direct tendency to make us more holy that we may be more happy, for there cannot be any real happiness apart from holiness." John Piper
So....who said all these things? None other then, A.W. Pink.

p. 63; 137; 145-146; 139. Elijah.
