When you are instructed by affliction, you can become a comforter to the afflicted.

Beware of self-righteousness. The black devil of licentiousness destroys his hundreds, but the white devil of self-righteousness destroys his thousands.

Obedience to the will of God is the pathway to perpetual honor and everlasting joy.

Nothing that man can present to God by way of sacrifice can ever purchase the blessing of forgiveness.

Self-righteousness exclaims, "I will not be saved in God's way; I will make a new road to heaven; I will not bow before God's grace; I will not accept the atonement which God has wrought out in the person of Jesus; I will be my own redeemer; I will enter heaven by my own strength, and glorify my own merits." The Lord is very wroth against self-righteousness. I do not know of anything against which His fury burneth more than against this, because this touches Him in a very tender point, it insults the glory and honor of His Son Jesus Christ.

Morality may keep you out of jail, but it takes the blood of Jesus Christ to keep you out of hell.

To trust God in the light is nothing, but trust him in the dark-that is faith.
