If we would have good ministers, we must remember our Lord’s example, and pray for them. Their work is heavy. Their responsibility is enormous. Their strength is small. Let us see that we support them, and hold up their hands by our prayers.

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.

Prayer is the very life-breath of true Christianity.

The true Christian regards all Christ's friends as his friends, members of the same body, children of the same family, soldiers in the same army, travelers to the same home. When he meets them, he feels as if he had long known them. He is more at home with them in a few minutes, than he is with many worldly people after an acquaintance of several years. And what is the secret of all this? It is simply affection to the same Savior and love to the same Lord.

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

Praying and sinning will never live together in the same heart. Prayer will consume sin, or sin will choke prayer.

I am one of those old-fashioned ministers who believe the whole Bible and everything that it contains.
