A right knowledge of sin lies at the root of all saving Christianity.

It may well be feared, that there is not enough Biblereading among us. It is not sufficient to have the Book. We must actually read it, and pray over it ourselves. It will do us no good, if it only lies still in our houses. We must be actually familiar with its contents, and have its texts stored in our memories and minds. Knowledge of the Bible never comes by intuition. It can only be obtained by diligent, regular, daily, attentive, wakeful reading.

Troublous times, departures from the faith, evil men waxing worse and worse, love waxing cold, are things distinctly predicted.

Value all books in proportion as they are agreeable to Scripture. Those that are nearest to it are the best, and those that are farthest from it, and most contrary to it, the worst.

Two-thirds of all the strifes, quarrels, and lawsuits in the world arise from one simple cause-money.

Take away the cross of Christ, and the Bible is a dark book.

Why is a believer patient? Because he looks for the coming of the Lord...He waits quietly for the King.
