Defend the Bible? I would as soon defend a lion! Unchain it and it will defend itself.

The modern [endtimes] notion has greatly damped the zeal of the church for missions, and the sooner it is shown to be unscriptural the better for the cause of God. It neither consorts with prophecy, honours God, nor inspires the church with ardour

To know is not to be wise. To know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom.

Serve God with integrity, and if you achieve no success, at least no sin will lie upon your conscience.

You are not mature if you have a high esteem of yourself. He who boasts in himself is but a babe in Christ, if indeed he be in Christ at all. Young Christians may think much of themselves. Growing Christians think themselves nothing. Mature Christians know that they are less than nothing. The more holy we are, the more we mourn our infirmities, and the humbler is our estimate of ourselves.

Atonement by the blood of Jesus is not an arm of Christian truth; it is the heart of it.

I believe that many professing Christians are cold and uncomfortable because they are doing nothing for their Lord; but if they actively served him, their blood would begin to circulate spiritually, and it would be well with them.
