Do not rest, believer, until you have full assurance of your interest in Jesus.

We may expect answers to prayer, and should not be easy without them any more than we should be if we had written a letter to a friend upon important business, and had received no reply.

If there existed only one man or woman who did not love the Saviour, and if that person lived among the wilds of Siberia, and if it were necessary that all the millions of believers on the face of the earth should journey there, and every one of them plead with him to come to Jesus before he could be converted, it would be well worth all the zeal, labour, and expense. If we had to preach to thousands year after year, and never rescued but one soul, that one soul would be full reward for all our labour, for a soul is of countless price.

Sympathy is especially a Christian duty.

He who does not serve God where he is would not serve God anywhere else.

You will never be saved against your will; God drags nobody to heaven by the ears.

The demon of pride was born with us; and it will not die one hour before us.
