Never lose heart in the power of the gospel. Do not believe that there exists any man, much less any race of men, for whom the gospel is not fitted.

There must be a divorce between you and sin, or there can be no marriage between you and Christ.

Faith is the accepting of what God gives. Faith is the believing what God says. Faith is the trusting to what Jesus has done. Only do this and you are saved, as surely as you are alive!

Whenever God means to make a man great, he always breaks him in pieces first.

The heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ.

The highest honor that God can confer upon his children is the blood-red crown of martyrdom. The jewels of a Christian are his afflictions. The regalia of the kings that God has made, are their troubles, their sorrows, and their griefs. Griefs exalt us, and troubles lift us.

Children will imitate their fathers in their vices, seldom in their repentance.
