The world's idea of greatness is to rule, but Christian greatness consists in serving.

The true cure for self-righteousness is self-knowledge.

There are very few errors and false doctrines of which the beginning may not be traced up to unsound views about the corruption of human nature. Wrong views of the disease will always bring with them wrong views of the remedy. Wrong views of the corruption of human nature will always carry with them wrong views of the grand antidote and cure of that corruption.

How is it that many who profess and call themselves Christians, do so little for the Savior whose name they bear?

Beware of self-righteousness in every possible shape and form. Some people get as much harm from their "virtues" as others do from their sins.

The only way to be really happy in such a world as this, is to be ever casting all our cares on God.

To say that we are sorry for our sins is mere hypocrisy, unless we show that we are really sorry for them, by giving them up. Doing is the very life of repentance.
