A good conscience will be found a pleasant visitor at our bedside in a dying hour.

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

To be prayerless is to be without God, without Christ, without grace, without hope, and without heaven.

Lastly, we must be holy, because without holiness on earth - we will never be prepared to enjoy Heaven. ...I do not know what others may think - but to me it does seem clear that Heaven would be a miserable place to an unholy man. It cannot be otherwise. People may say in a vague way, that they "hope to go to Heaven, but they do not consider what they say. There must be a certain "fitness for the inheritance of the saints in light.

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.

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

Backsliding, generally first begins with neglect of private prayer.
