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

There are eternal consequences resulting from all our thoughts, words and actions, of which we take far too little account.

We must be holy, because this is the only sound evidence that we have a saving faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

Am I honest? Am I sincere? Do I really desire first the praise of God?

The cause of Christ does not need less working, but it does need among the workers, more praying.

We are all so sunk in sin, and so wedded to the world, that we would never turn to God and seek salvation, unless He first called us by His grace. Without a divine call, no one can be saved.

So long as you do not quarrel with sin, you will never be a truly happy man.
