The Gospel was not meant merely to reside in our intellect, memories, and tongues, but to be seen in our lives.

Beware of self-righteousness in every possible shape and form. Some people get as much harm from their "virtues" as others do from their sins.

Are you tempted? Look unto Jesus. Are you afflicted? Look unto Jesus. Do all speak evil of you? Look unto Jesus. Do you feel cold, dull, and backsliding? Look unto Jesus.

He that would be conformed to Christ's image, and become a Christ-like man, must be constantly studying Christ Himself.

Many, I fear, would like glory, who have no wish for grace. They would [want to] have the wages, but not the work; the harvest, but not the labor; the reaping, but not the sowing; the reward, but not the battle. But it may not be.

Laughter, ridicule, opposition, persecution, are often the only reward which Christ's followers get from the world.

Unity without the gospel is a worthless unity; it is the very unity of hell.
