Hold everything earthly with a loose hand, but grasp eternal things with a death-like grip

Never lose heart in the power of the gospel. Do not believe that there exists any man, much less any race of men, for whom the gospel is not fitted.

To know is not to be wise. To know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom.

Men turn their faces to hell, and hope to get to heaven; why don't they walk into the horsepond, and hope to be dry?.

Give yourself to reading.’... You need to read. Renounce as much as you will all light literature, but study as much as possible sound theological works, especially the Puritanic writers, and expositions of the Bible.

By all means read the Puritans, they are worth more than all the modern stuff put together.

All the hope of our ministry lies in the Spirit of God operating on the spirits of men.
