Since Satan can't destroy the gospel, he has too often neutralized its usefulness by addition, subtraction or substitution.

The surest mark of true conversion is humility.

Doctrine is useless if it is not accompanied by a holy life. It is worse than useless; it does positive harm. Something of 'the image of Christ' must be seen and observed by others in our private life, and habits, and character, and doings.

The devil has more knowledge than any of us, and yet is no better for it.

Conversion is not putting a man in an armchair and taking him easily to heaven. It is the beginning of a mighty conflict, in which it costs much to win the victory.

I must honestly declare my conviction that, since the days of the Reformation, there never has been so much profession of religion without practice, so much talking about God without walking with Him, so much hearing God's words without doing them.

A good conscience will be found a pleasant visitor at our bedside in a dying hour.
