Grace does not choose a man and leave him as he is.
To Christ we are to be always coming; upon Him always relying; to His precious blood always looking.
A person who is really saved by Grace does not need to be told that he is under solemn obligations to serve Christ. The new life within him tells him that. Instead of regarding it as a burden, he gladly surrenders himself, body, soul, and spirit, to the Lord.
We cannot play at preaching. We preach for eternity.
Whatever is your greatest joy and treasure, that is your god.
If you think you can walk in holiness without keeping up perpetual fellowship with Christ, you have made a great mistake. If you would be holy, you must live close to Jesus.
