If we would know whether our faith is genuine, we do well to ask ourselves how we are living.

If we would be sanctified, our course is clear and plain—we must begin with Christ. We must go to him as sinners, with no plea but that of utter need, and cast our souls on him by faith, for peace and reconciliation with God.... If we would grow in holiness and become more sanctified, we must continually go on as we began, and be ever making fresh applications to Christ.

Prayer is the mightiest weapon that God has placed in our hands.

True worship leads to a more full knowledge of self, God, heaven, duty, doctrine, practice and experience.

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.

Better to confess Christ 1000 times now and be despised by men, than be disowned by Christ before God on the day of Judgment.

Surely if there be any habit which your own hand and eye should help in forming, it is the habit of prayer.
