The Bible, the whole Bible, and nothing but the Bible is the religion of Christ's church.

I THINK the moments we are nearest to heaven are those we spend at the Lord’s table.

Preach not calmly and quietly as though you were asleep, but preach with fire and pathos and passion.

If it does not glorify Christ, let it not console or please you.

We cannot rely on ourselves, for we have learned by bitter experience the folly of self-confidence. We are compelled to look to the Lord alone. Blessed is the wind that drives the ship into the harbor. Blessed is the distress that forces us to rest in our God.

I am no preacher of the old legal Sabbath. I am a preacher of the gospel. The Sabbath of the Jew is to him a task; the Lord's Day of the Christian, the first day of the week, is to him a joy, a day of rest, of peace, and of thanksgiving. And if you Christian men can earnestly drive away all distractions, so that you can really rest today, it will be good for your bodies, good for your souls, good mentally, good spiritually, good temporally, and good eternally.

Christians are not so much in danger when they are persecuted as when they are admired.
