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

I do not know when I am more perfectly happy than when I am weeping for sin at the foot of the cross.

The higher a man is in grace, the lower he will be in his own esteem.

Christ also takes from us all inclination or power to boast of our national prestige. To me, it is prestige enough to be a Christian--to bear the cross Christ gives me to carry and to follow in the footsteps of the great Crossbearer.

I do not believe that any man can preach the gospel who does not preach the Law. The Law is the needle, and you cannot draw the silken thread of the gospel through a man’s heart unless you first send the needle of the Law to make way for it.

Trust Christ, but do not trust yourself

Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God; and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works; and he that is without works is without faith.
