“Whatever others around you think, don’t you ever be ashamed of being a Christian.”

Look not to yourselves! You are by nature wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked. Look simply unto Jesus.

It costs something to be a true Christian. It will cost us our sins, our self-righteousn ess, our ease and our worldliness.

Look to the cross, think of the cross, meditate on the cross, and then go and set your affections on the world if you can.

O Christian, look up and take comfort. Jesus has prepared a place for you, and those who follow Him shall never perish, neither shall anyone pluck them out of His hands.

Since Satan can’t destroy the gospel, he has too often neutralized its usefulness by addition, subtraction or substitution.

According to the men of the world, few are going to hell; According to the Bible, few are going to heaven.

Why is a believer patient? Because he looks for the coming of the Lord…He waits quietly for the King.

Just as the first sign of life in an infant when born into the world is the act of breathing, so the first act of men and women when they are born again is praying.

Knowledge of the Bible never comes by intuition. It can only be obtained by diligent, regular, daily, attentive reading.

The Gospel was not meant merely to reside in our intellect, memories, and tongues, but to be seen in our lives.

That preaching is sadly defective which dwells exclusively on the mercies of God and the joys of heaven, yet never sets forth the terrors of the Lord and the miseries of hell.

I fear we are in danger of forgetting that to HAVE the Bible is one thing, and to READ it quite another.

Nothing perhaps affects man’s character more than the company he keeps

Conversion is not putting a man in an armchair and taking him easily to heaven. It is the beginning of a mighty conflict, in which it costs much to win the victory.

Let us resolve by God’s grace, that however poor and feeble our prayers may seem to be, we will pray on.

What is the best safeguard against false doctrine? The Bible regularly read, regularly prayed over, regularly studied.
