True weirdness from the world don’t consist in being beat off from the world by the affliction of it, but a being drawn off by the sight of something better.

Religion, in its purity, is not so much a pursuit as a temper; or rather it is a temper, leading to the pursuit of all that is high and holy. Its foundation is faith; its action, works; its temper, holiness; its aim, obedience to God in improvement of self, and benevolence to men.

By Christ’s purchasing redemption, two things are intended: his satisfaction and his merit; the one pays our debt, and so satisfies; the other procures our title, and so merits. The satisfaction of Christ is to free us from misery; the merit of Christ is to purchase happiness for us.
JONATHAN EDWARDS

Happiness Misery Ourselves Purchase Satisfaction

I go out to preach with two propositions in mind. First, every person ought to give his life to Christ. Second, whether or not anyone else gives him his life, I will give him mine.

We cannot believe that the church of God is already possessed of all that light which God intends to give it; nor that all Satan’s lurking places have already been found out.
JONATHAN EDWARDS

A man who knows that he lives in sin against God will not be inclined to come daily into the presence of God.

Christ gives peace to the most sinful and miserable that come to Him. He heals the broken in heart and binds up their wounds.
