We would labor earnestly to raise a believer in salvation by free will into a believer in salvation by grace, for we long to see all religious teaching built upon the solid rock of truth and not upon the sand of imagination. At the same time, our grand object is not the revision of opinions, but the regeneration of natures. We should bring men to Christ, not to our own particular views of Christianity.

I do not believe there ever was a man who was his own master, but that every man has a master of some kind or other.

Free will I have often heard of, but I have never seen it. I have always met with will, and plenty of it, but it has either been led captive by sin or held in the blessed bonds of grace.

We Christians do not believe that Jesus Christ was the only one that ever rose from the dead. We believe that every death-bed is a resurrection; that from every grave the stone, is rolled away.

Let your thoughts be psalms, your prayers incense, and your breath praise.

God has so made man's heart that nothing can ever fill it but God himself.

Your emptiness is but the preparation for your being filled, and your casting down is but the making ready for your lifting up.
