Live as with God; and, whatever be your calling, pray for the gift that will perfectly qualify you in it.

A true Christian man is distinguished from other men, not so much by his beneficent works, as by his patience.

It is only Christianity, the great bond of love and duty to God, that makes any existence valuable or even tolerable.

There never has been a great and beautiful character, which has not become so by filling well the ordinary and smaller offices appointed of God.

Christ is redemption only as He actually redeems and delivers our nature from sin. If He is not the law and spring of a new spirit of life, He is nothing. "As many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God," as many, no more.
