Never lose heart in the power of the gospel.
Nothing that man can present to God by way of sacrifice can ever purchase the blessing of forgiveness.
We need winds and tempests to exercise our faith, to tear off the rotten bough of self-dependence, and to root us more firmly in Christ. The day of evil reveals to us the value of our glorious hope.
If it does not glorify Christ, let it not console or please you.
He who does not long to know more of Christ, knows nothing of him yet.
The most effective sermons are those which make opposers of the Gospel bite their lips and gnash their teeth.
