Free-will doctrine-what does it? It magnifies man into God. It declares God's purposes a nullity, since they cannot be carried out unless men are willing. It makes God's will a waiting servant to the will of man, and the whole covenant of grace dependent on human action. Denying election on the ground of injustice, it holds God to be a debtor to sinners.

If you will tell me when God permits a Christian to lay aside his armour, I will tell you when Satan has left off temptation.

When we cannot see the sunshine of God's face, it is blessed to cower down beneath the shadow of his wings.

Alas! Much has been done of late to promote the production of dwarfish Christians. Poor, sickly believers turn the church into an hospital, rather than an army. Oh, to have a church built up with the deep godliness of people who know the Lord in their very hearts, and will seek to follow the Lamb wherever he goes!

That which,like a sea, threatens to drown you- shall be a highway for your escape

You and your sins must separate, or you and your God will never come together.

God helps those who cannot help themselves.
