The true Christian delights to hear something about his Master. He likes those sermons best which are full of Christ.

Let us be very careful that we never exalt any minister, or sermon, or book, or friend above the Word of God.

All converted people should labor to adorn the doctrine they profess by humility. If they can do nothing else, they can strive to be humble.

Miserable indeed is that religious teaching which calls itself Christian, and yet contains nothing of the cross.

Look to the cross, think of the cross, meditate on the cross, and then go and set your affections on the world if you can.

A religion that costs nothing is worth nothing. A cheap Christianity, without a cross, will prove in the end a useless Christianity, without a crown.

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.
