“Laughter, ridicule, opposition, persecution, are often the only reward which Christ’s followers get from the world.”

Let us seek friends that will stir up our prayers, our Bible reading, our use of time, and our salvation.

True Christianity is not merely believing a certain set of dry abstract propositions: it is to live in daily personal communication with an actual living person – Jesus Christ.

We must give up the vain idea of trying to please everybody. That is impossible, and the attempt is a mere waste of time. We must be content to walk in Christ’s steps, and let the world say what it likes.

Faith in the Lord Jesus is the only sure medicine for troubled hearts.

Tomorrow is the devil’s day, but today is God’s. Satan does not care how spiritual your intentions are, or how holy your resolutions, if only they are determined to be done tomorrow.

And I believe it to be a signal evidence of the Spirit’s presence when the Word is really precious to a man ‘s soul.

Our Lord has many weak children in his family, many dull pupils in his school, many raw soldiers in his army, many lame sheep in his flock. Yet he bears with them all, and casts none away. Happy is that Christian who has learned to do likewise with his brethren.

Faith is to the soul what life is to the body. Prayer is to faith what breath is to the body. How a person can live and not breathe is past my comprehension, and how a person can believe and not pray is past my comprehension too.

There will be no universal peace until the Prince of Peace appears.

Let us never forget that our chief danger is from within. The world and the devil combined, cannot do us as much harm as our own hearts will, if we do not watch and pray.

Nothing is so offensive to Christ as lukewarmness in religion.

Your trials, crosses, and conflicts are all temporary.

Wealth is no mark of God’s favor. Poverty is no mark of God’s displeasure.

No one ever reached heaven without repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

Obedience is the only reality. It is faith visible, faith acting, and faith manifest. It is the test of real discipleship among the Lord’s people.

It is neglect of the Bible which makes so many a prey to the first false teacher whom they hear.
