The more fully that the gospel is preached, in the grand old apostolic way, the more likely is it to accomplish the results which it did in the apostolic days.

The believed gospel saves; but it is the believed promise that assures us of this salvation.

For we are not saved by believing in our own salvation, nor by believing anything whatsoever about ourselves. We are saved by what we believe about the Son of God and His righteousness. The gospel believed saves; not the believing in our own faith.

It is to the dead that the life comes; it is to the unloveable that the love comes; it is to the lost that the salvation comes.

Sow truth, if thou the truth wouldst reap: Who sows the false shall reap the vain.

Uncertainty as to our relationship to God is one of the most enfeebling and dispiriting of things. It makes a man heartless. It takes the pith out of him. He cannot fight; he cannot run. He is easily dismayed, and gives way. He can do nothing for God.

Bold preaching is the only preaching that is owned of God.
