“The Gospel which we possess was not given to us only to be admired, talked of, and professed – but to be practiced.”

Beware of manufacturing a God of your own: a God who is all mercy, but not just. Such a God is an idol of your own.

Let us receive nothing, believe nothing, follow nothing which is not in the Bible, nor can be proved by the Bible.

Sicknesses, losses, crosses, anxieties and disappointments seem absolutely needful to keep us humble, watchful and spiritual-minde d. They are as needful as the pruning knife to the vine and the refiner’s furnace to the gold.

Every fresh act of sin lessens fear and remorse, hardens our hearts, blunts the edge of our conscience, and increases our evil inclination.

How is it that many who profess and call themselves Christians, do so little for the Savior whose name they bear?

If you love Christ, never be ashamed to let others see it and know it. Speak for Him. Witness for Him. Live for Him.

Men fall in private long before they fall in public.

Do not glory in your own faith, your own feelings, your own knowledge, or your own diligence. Glory in nothing but Christ.

Let us cleave to Christ more closely, love Him more heartily, live to Him more thoroughly, copy Him more exactly, confess Him more boldly, and follow Him more fully.

Let your Christianity be so unmistakable, your eye so single, your heart so whole, your walk so straightforward, that all who see you may have no doubt whose you are, and whom you serve.

We know but little of true Christianity, if we don’t feel a deep concern about the souls of unconverted people.

Never let us be guilty of sacrificing any portion of truth on the altar of peace.

Pride is the oldest and most common of sins. Humility is the rarest and most beautiful of graces.

Jesus hears us, and in His own good time will give an answer… He may sometimes keep us long waiting…but He will never send us empty away.

God is far more willing to save sinners than sinners are to be saved.

If you do not love Christ, let me tell you plainly what is the reason. You have no sense of debt to him.
