We ought to regard the sacrament of baptism with reverence. An ordinance of which the Lord Jesus Himself partook, is not to be lightly esteemed. An ordinance to which the great Head of the Church submitted, ought to be ever honorable in the eyes of professing Christians.

Doubting does not prove that a man has no faith, but only that his faith is small. And even when our faith is small, the Lord is ready to help us.

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

Let it be a settled principle ...that men's salvation, if saved, is wholly of God; and that man's ruin, if lost, is wholly of himself.

However corrupt our hearts, and however wicked our past lives, there is hope for us in the Gospel.

Before Christ comes it is useless to expect to see a perfect Church.

If I never spoke of hell, I should think I had kept back something that was profitable, and should look on myself as an accomplice of the devil.
