A sermon often does a man most good when it makes him most angry. Those people who walk down the aisles and say, "I will never hear that man again," very often have an arrow rankling in their breast.

Poor human nature cannot bear such strains as heavenly triumphs bring to it; there must come a reaction. Excess of joy or excitement must be paid for by subsequent depressions. While the trial lasts, the strength is equal to the emergency; but when it is over, natural weakness claims the right to show itself.

Oh, without prayer what are the church's agencies, but the stretching out of a dead man's arm, or the lifting up of the lid of a blind man's eye? Only when the Holy Spirit comes is there any life and force and power.

If you hear a man rail at the Bible, you can usually conclude that he never reads it.

Whenever GOD determines to do a great work, HE first sets HIS people to pray.

He that reads his Bible to find fault with it will soon discover that the Bible finds fault with him.

I do not preach doubtingly, for I do not live doubtingly.
