If you hear a man rail at the Bible, you can usually conclude that he never reads it.

Bread is a second cause; the LORD Himself is the first source of our sustenance. He can work without the second cause as well as with it; and we must not tie Him down to one mode of operation. Let us not be too eager after the visible, but let us look to the invisible God.

I would rather lay my soul asoak in half a dozen verses [of the Bible] all day than rinse my hand in several chapters.

He is truly great in who hath power over himself.

As sure as God puts His children in the furnace of affliction, He will be with them in it.

If you love anything better than God you are idolaters: if there is anything you would not give up for God it is your idol: if there is anything that you seek with greater fervor than you seek the glory of God, that is your idol, and conversion means a turning from every idol.

He that reads his Bible to find fault with it will soon discover that the Bible finds fault with him.
