The preacher's work is to throw sinners down into utter helplessness that they may be compelled to look up to Him Who alone can help them.

Do not begin to teach others until the Lord has taught you.

When thou diest, thy soul will be tormented alone; that will be a hell for it, but at the day of judgment they body will join thy soul, and then thou wilt have twin hells, thy soul sweating drops of blood, and thy body suffused with agony. In fire exactly like that which we have on earth thy body will lie, asbestos-like, forever unconsumed, all they veins roads for the feet of pain to travel on, every nerve a string on which the devil shall forever play his diabolical tune of 'Hell's Unutterable Lament'.

The heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ. They who preach this truth preach the gospel in whatever else they may be mistaken; but they who preach not the atonement, whatever else they declare, have missed the soul and substance of the divine message.

God has a way of giving by the cartloads to those who give away by shovelfuls.

Of two evils, choose neither.

It is a reading age, a preaching age, a working age, but it is not a praying age.
