Shall we keep men in a fool's paradise? Shall we lull them into soft slumbers from which they will awake in hell? Are we to become helpers of their damnation by our smooth speeches? In the name of God, we will not!

Prayer is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honor of a Christian.

Let your tears fall because of sin; but, at the same time, let the eye of faith steadily behold the Son of man lifted up, as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, that those who are bitten by the old serpent may look unto Jesus and live. Our sinnership is that emptiness into which the Lord pours his mercy.

The faith which saves is not one single act done on a certain day: it is an act continued and persevered in throughout the life of man.

The Lord who cannot endure vain repetitions is equally weary of vain variations.

We shall never find happiness by looking at our prayers, our doings, or our feelings; it is what Jesus is, not what we are, that gives rest to the soul.

Revival begins by Christians getting right first and then spills over into the world.
