Let us strive, every year we live, to become more deeply acquainted with Scripture.

Without holiness on earth we shall never be prepared to enjoy heaven. Heaven is a holy place. The Lord of heaven is a holy Being. The angels are holy creatures. Holiness is written on everything in heaven... How shall we ever be at home and happy in heaven if we die unholy?

If we would know whether our faith is genuine, we do well to ask ourselves how we are living.

Humility and love are precisely the graces which the men of the world can understand, if they do not comprehend doctrines. They are the graces about which there is no mystery, and they are within reach of all classes... The poorest Christian can every day find occasion for practicing love and humility.

A crucified Savior will never be content to have a self-pleasing, self-indulging, worldly-minded people.

Sin rarely seems sin at first beginnings.

I fear we are in danger of forgetting that to HAVE the Bible is one thing, and to READ it quite another.
