The Gospel is like a caged lion. It does not need to be defended, it just needs to be let out of its cage.

I would not choose to go where I would be afraid to die, nor could I bear to live without a good hope for hereafter.

The worst thing thou has to fear is the treachery of thine own heart.

A man is not saved against his will, but he is made willing by the operation of the Holy Ghost. A mighty grace which he does not wish to resist enters into the man, disarms him, makes a new creature of him, and he is saved.

If we empty our hearts of self God will fill them with His love.

You may speak but a word to a child, and in that child there may be slumbering a noble heart which shall stir the Christian Church in years to come.

You cannot preach conviction of sin unless you have suffered it. You cannot preach repentance unless you have practiced it. You cannot preach faith unless you have exercised it. True preaching is artesian; it wells up from the great depths of the soul. If Christ has not made a well within us, there will be no outflow from us.
