All our afflictions, all our temptations are to make heaven more desirable, and earth more loathsome.

Open your hearts as wide as ever you will, the Spirit of the Lord shall fill them.

Come away, my dear brethren, fly, fly, fly for your lives to Jesus Christ; fly to a bleeding God, fly to a throne of grace; and beg of God to break your heart; beg of God to convince you of your actual sins; beg of God to convince you of your original sin; beg of God to convince you of your self-righteousness; beg of God to give you faith, and to enable you to close with Jesus Christ.

Fight the good fight of faith, and God will give you spiritual mercies.

When you hear of a notorious sinner, instead of thinking you do well to be angry, beg of Jesus Christ to convert, and make him a monument of his free grace.

True conversion means turning not only from sin but also from depending on self-made righteousness.

Man is nothing: he hath a free will to go to hell, but none to go to heaven, till God worketh in him to will and to do his good pleasure.
