It is not faith in Christ that saves you (though faith is the instrument) - it is Christ's blood and merits.

Sometimes we are inclined to think that a very great portion of modern revivalism has been more a curse than a blessing, because it has led thousands to a kind of peace before they have known their misery; restoring the prodigal to the Father’s house, and never making him say, “Father, I have sinned.”

There is an inherent blasphemy in seeking to add to what Christ Jesus in His dying moments declared to be finished.

Oh, the hard, cruel thoughts which men have toward one another when they are angry! They kill and slay a thousand times over. These hasty sins are soon forgotten by us, but they are not forgotten by God.

Be Godlike then; and in all ways and by all means so live that all may say of you, 'He has been with Jesus'.

Soar back through all your own experiences. Think of how the Lord has led you in the wilderness and has fed and clothed you every day. How God has borne with your ill manners, and put up with all your murmurings and all your longings after the 'sensual pleasures of Egypt!' Think of how the Lord's grace has been sufficient for you in all your troubles.

Humility is the proper estimate of oneself.
