The Providence of God is the great protector of our life and usefulness, and under the divine care we are perfectly safe from danger.

I believe certain doctrines because God says they are true; and the only authority I have for their truth is the Word of God. I receive such and such doctrines, not because I can prove them to be compatible with reason, not because my judgment accepts them, but because God says they are true. Now this is one of the best services we can render to God,-to submit ourselves to him in our belief of what he has revealed, and ask him to fix his truths in our hearts, and make us obey them.

Don’t go where it is all fine music and grand talk and beautiful architecture; those things will neither fill anybody’s stomach, nor feed his soul. Go where the gospel is preached, the gospel that really feeds your soul, and go often.

People will not receive the balm of the gospel unless they know something of the wounds that sin has made.

When you speak of heaven, let your face light up; let it be irradiated by a heavenly gleam; let your eyes shine with reflected glory. But when you speak of hell, your ordinary expression will do.

He that is ashamed to speak the truth has need to be ashamed of himself.

Atonement by the blood of Jesus is not an arm of Christian truth; it is the heart of it.
