Permit us to labor on in obscurity, and at the end of twenty years you may hear from us again.

God answers all true prayer, either in kind or in kindness.

Let me beg you, not to rest contented with the commonplace religion that is now so prevalent.

There is no success without sacrifice. If you succeed without sacrifice it is because someone has suffered before you. If you sacrifice without success it is because someone will succeed after.

After many painful trials, which none can know, but those who are taught to relinquish a system in which they had been educated, I settled down in the full persuasion, that the immersion of a professing believer in Christ is the only Christian baptism.

If I had not felt certain that every additional trial was ordered by infinite love and mercy, I could not have survived my accumulated suffering.

The future is a bright as the promises of God.
