Let me revel in this one thought: before God made the heavens and the earth, He set His love upon me.

To wash and dress a corpse is a far different thing from making it alive: Man can do the one--God alone can do the other.

Surely if men's hearts were right, short sermons would be enough.

I believe the hard heartest, most cross grained and most unloving Christians in all the world are those who have not had much trouble in their life. And those that are the most sympathizing, loving and Christlike are generally those who have the most affliction. The worse thing that can happen to any of us is to have a path made too smooth. One of the greatest blessings the Lord ever gave us was a cross.

Prayer and praise are the oars by which a man may row his boat into the deep waters of the knowledge of Christ.

If Christ be anything he must be everything. O rest not till love and faith in Jesus be the master passions of your soul!

When men talk of a little hell it's because they think they have only a little sin and believe in a little Savior.
