Let this be to you the mark of true gospel preaching - where Christ is everything, and the creature is nothing; where it is salvation all of grace, through the work of the Holy Spirit applying to the soul the precious blood of Jesus.

The Christian should work as if all depended upon him, and pray as if it all depended upon God.

If you are to go to Christ, do not put on your good doings and feelings, or you will get nothing. Go in your sins, they are your livery. Your ruin is your argument for mercy! Your poverty is your plea for heavenly alms! And your need is the motive for heavenly goodness.

Don't let your hopes or fears come between you and Jesus; follow hard after Him. He will never fail you.

It is blessed to eat into the very soul of the Bible until the very essence of the Bible flows from you.

Faith is believing that Christ is what he is said to be, and that he will do what he has promised to do, and then to expect this of him.

You and your sins must separate or you and your God will never come together. No one sin may keep you; they must all be given up, they must be brought out like Canaanite kings from the cave and be hanged up in the sun.
