You cannot preach conviction of sin unless you have suffered it. You cannot preach repentance unless you have practiced it. You cannot preach faith unless you have exercised it. True preaching is artesian; it wells up from the great depths of the soul. If Christ has not made a well within us, there will be no outflow from us.

I THINK the moments we are nearest to heaven are those we spend at the Lord’s table.

The way to do a great deal is to keep on doing a little. The way to do nothing at all is to be continually resolving that you will do everything.

Faith goes up the stairs that love has built and looks out the windows which hope has opened.

Don't drown the man who taught you to swim. If you learned your trade or profession from the man, do not set up in opposition to him.

It is foolish to try to live on past experience. It is very dangerous, if not a fatal habit, to judge ourselves to be safe because of something that we felt or did twenty years ago.

Never, for fear of feeble man, restrain your witness.
