The work of God's Holy Spirit begins with bruising. In order to be saved, the fallow ground must be plowed up, the hard heart must be broken, the rock must be split apart.

Let gratitude be awakened; let humility be deepened; let love be quickened.

You must be DIVORCED from your SIN, or you cannot be MARRIED to CHRIST.

I trust there are none here present, who profess to be followers of Christ who do not also practice prayer in their families. We may have no positive commandment for it, but we believe that it is so much in accord with the genius and spirit of the gospel, and that it is so commended by the example of the saints, that the neglect thereof is a strange inconsistency.

Final perseverance is the necessary evidence of genuine conversion.

God save us from living in comfort while sinners are sinking into hell!

Too many think lightly of sin, and therefore think lightly of the Savior.
