Christ is a substitute for everything, but nothing is a substitute for Christ.

All self-effort is but sinking sand. Christ alone is the Rock of our salvation.

It is not only that sin consists in doing evil, but in not doing the good that we know.

Sin had no sooner come into the world than God came in grace seeking the sinner, and so from the first question, 'Adam, where art thou?' on to the incarnation, God has been speaking to man.

If what they are saying about you is true, mend your ways. If it isn't true, forget it, and go on and serve the Lord.

No one ever lost out by excessive devotion to Christ.

Beware lest we mistake our prejudices for our convictions.
