Whatever you read, read the Bible first. Beware of bad books: there are plenty in this day. Take heed what you read.

Sanctification is the outcome and inseparable consequence of regeneration. He who is born again and made a new creature receives a new nature and a new principle and always lives a new life.

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

A deep sense of sin, a humble willingness to be saved in God's way, a teachable readiness to give up our own prejudices when a more excellent way is shown, these are the principal things. These things the two disciples possessed, and therefore our Lord "went with them" and guided them into all truth.

A man may just as soon read the Scripture without eyes, as understand the spirit of it without grace.

Naked we came upon earth, and naked we go forth, and of all our possessions, we can carry nothing with us.

A zealous Savior ought to have zealous disciples.
