God is to be praised with the voice, and the heart should go therewith in holy exultation.

Life is short and we have scarcely begun to live when we are called to die.

Time is short. Eternity is long. It is only reasonable that this short life be lived in the light of eternity.

The furnace of affliction is a good place for you, Christian; it benefits you; it helps you to become more like Christ, and it is fitting you for heaven.

Every man who loses everlasting life rejects it himself. God denies it not to him-he will not come that he may have life.

If you wish to know God, you must know his Word. If you wish to perceive His power, you must see how He works by his Word. If you wish to know His purpose before it comes to pass, you can only discover it by His Word.

You and I cannot be useful if we want to be sweet as honey in the mouths of men. God will never bless us if we wish to please men, that they may think well of us. Are you willing to tell them what will break your own heart in the telling and break theirs in the hearing? If not, you are not fit to serve the Lord. You must be willing to go and speak for God, though you will be rejected.
