Beloved, there are heights in experimental knowledge of the things of God that the eagles discerning eye and philosophical thought have never seen...God alone can take us there, but the chariot in which He takes us up and the fiery steeds that pull the chariot, are prevailing prayers.

Your damnation is your own election, not God’s.

The worst sort of clever men are those who know better than the Bible.

Surely if men's hearts were right, short sermons would be enough.

An unkind heart is the worst. It is a plague to its possessor, and a torment to those around him.

He who climbs above the cares of this world, and turns his face to his God, has found the sunny side of life.

Avoid a sugared gospel as you would shun sugar of lead. Seek the gospel which rips up and tears and cuts and wounds and hacks and even kills, for that is the gospel that makes alive again. And when you have found it, give good heed to it. Let it enter into your inmost being. As the rain soaks into the ground, so pray the Lord to let his gospel soak into your soul.
