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

Do not wade far out into the dangerous sea of this world's comfort. Take the good that God provides you, but say of it, "It passeth away;" for, indeed, it is but a temporary supply for a temporary need. Never suffer your goods to become your God.

It is not faith in Christ that saves you (though faith is the instrument) - it is Christ's blood and merits.

Whenever you get one inch above the ground in your own esteem, you are that inch too high!

A man is not saved against his will, but he is made willing by the operation of the Holy Ghost. A mighty grace which he does not wish to resist enters into the man, disarms him, makes a new creature of him, and he is saved.

It is a reading age, a preaching age, a working age, but it is not a praying age.

I am but of yesterday, and know nothing.
