Between here and heaven, every minute that the Christian lives will be a minute of grace.

If you are to go to Christ, do not put on your good doings and feelings, or you will get nothing. Go in your sins, they are your livery. Your ruin is your argument for mercy! Your poverty is your plea for heavenly alms! And your need is the motive for heavenly goodness.

Carve your name on hearts, not on marble

Out of every difficulty Omnipotence can bring us, only let us in childlike confidence cast our burden upon the Lord.

Be dogmatically true, obstinately holy, immovably honest, desperately kind, fixedly upright.

If there be any one point in which the Christian church ought to keep its fervor at a white heat, it is concerning missions. If there be anything about which we cannot tolerate lukewarmness,it is the matter of sending the gospel to a dying world.

The child of God knows his good works do not make him acceptable to God, for he was acceptable to God by Jesus Christ long before he had any good works.
