If God does not save men by truth, he certainly will not save them by lies. And if the old gospel is not competent to work a revival, then we will do without the revival.

Not for yourself, O church, do you exist, any more than Christ existed for himself.

When it is the Lord’s work in which we rejoice, we need not be afraid of being too glad.

Remember this, had any other condition been better for you than the one in which you are, divine love would have put you there.

True prayer is an approach of the soul by the Spirit of God to the throne of God.

Your sorrow itself shall be turned into joy. Not the sorrow to be taken away, and joy to be put in its place, but the very sorrow which now grieves you shall be turned into joy. God not only takes away the bitterness and gives sweetness in its place, but turns the bitterness into sweetness itself.

Nothing but grace makes a man so humble and, at the same time, so glad.
