It will be an ill day when our brethren take to bragging and boasting and call it 'testimony to the victorious Christian life.' We trust that holiness will be more than ever the aim of believers, but not the boastful holiness which has deluded some of the excellent of the earth into vain glory, and under which their firmest friends shudder for them.

My soul has learned yet more fully than ever, this day, that there is no satisfaction to be found in earthly things-God alone can give rest to my spirit.

To pray is to mount on eagle's wings above the clouds and get into the clear heaven where God dwelleth.

From all the afflictions, Your glory shall spring. And the deeper the sorrow, the louder you'll sing.

The sermon which does not lead to Christ, or of which Jesus Christ is not the top and the bottom, is a sort of sermon that will make the devils in hell laugh, but make the angels of God weep.

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

I would go to the deeps a hundred times a cheer a downcast spirit.
