“Without a thorough conviction of sin, men may seem to come to Jesus and follow Him for a season, but they will soon fall away and return to the world.”

Wherever we may be, or whatever our circumstances, the Lord Jesus sees them. We are never beyond the reach of His care.

Praying and sinning will never live together in the same heart. Prayer will consume sin, or sin will choke prayer.

The Lord Jesus is “a friend who never changes.” There is no fickleness about Him: those whom He loves, He loves to the end.

Imagination is the hotbed where this sin is too often hatched. Guard your thoughts, and there will be little fear about your actions.

To say that we are sorry for our sins is mere hypocrisy, unless we show that we are really sorry for them, by giving them up. Doing is the very life of repentance.

Trials are intended to make us think, to wean us from the world, to send us to the Bible, to drive us to our knees.

A religion that costs nothing is worth nothing. A cheap Christianity, without a cross, will prove in the end a useless Christianity, without a crown.

Live as if you thought that Christ might come at any time.

Let us be very careful that we never exalt any minister, or sermon, or book, or friend above the Word of God.

Never does a person see any beauty in Christ as a Savior, until they discover that they are a lost and ruined sinner.

HATE SIN! Instead of loving it, cleaving to it, excusing it, playing with it, we ought to hate it with a deadly hatred.

Prayer needs neither learning, wisdom or book knowledge to begin it. It needs nothing but heart and will.

The only way to be really happy in such a world as this, is to be ever casting all our cares on God.

Except a man be born again, he will wish one day he had never been born at all.

To be prayerless is to be without God, without Christ, without grace, without hope, and without heaven.

I maintain that to tell a person they are born again, while they are living in carelessness or sin, is a dangerous delusion.

Defiling flesh in hope to see divine created by sin we are gods work.

Just take everything exactly as it is, put it in God’s hands and leave it with Him.

When God works miracles, he does not do it in order to supply the wants of nature, but those of grace. Whoever thinks otherwise, must needs have a very mean notion of the wisdom and power of God.

You’re shaking … so am I. It’s because of Jerusalem, isn’t it? One doesn’t go to Jerusalem, one returns to it. That’s one of its mysteries.

God is God. Because he is God, He is worthy of my trust and obedience. I will find rest nowhere but in His holy will that is unspeakably beyond my largest notions of what he is up to.

Christ is either Lord of all, or He is not Lord at all.

God isn’t looking for people of great faith, but for individuals ready to follow Him

A quiet heart is content with what God gives. It is enough. All is grace.
