If there is one doctrine I have preached more than another, it is the doctrine of the Perseverance of the Saints even to the end.

If we be married to Christ, and He be jealous of us, depend upon it this jealous husband will let none touch His spouse.

Death is no punishment to the believer: it is the gate of endless joy.

My entire theology can be condensed into four words, 'JESUS DIED FOR ME'.

Is not the gospel its own sign and wonder? Is not this a miracle of miracles, that 'God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish'? Surely that precious word, 'Whosoever will, let him come and take the water of life freely' and that solemn promise, 'Him that cometh unto Me, I will in no wise cast out,' are better than signs and wonders! A truthful Saviour ought to be believed. He is truth itself. Why will you ask proof of the veracity of One who cannot lie?
