The temple in which the Lord Jesus delights most, is a broken and contrite heart, renewed by the Holy Spirit.

Next to praying there is nothing so important in practical religion as Bible reading. By reading that book we may learn what to believe, what to be, and what to do; how to live with comfort, and how to die in peace.” Happy is that man who possesses a Bible! Happier still is he who reads it! Happiest of all is he who not only reads it, but obeys it, and makes it the rule of his faith and practice!

If you profess to be a child of God, leave it to the Lord Jesus to sanctify you in His own way.

People may refuse to see the truth of our arguments, but they cannot evade the evidence of a holy life.

I should as soon expect a farmer to prosper in business who contented himself with sowing his fields and never looking at them till harvest, as expect a believer to attain much holiness who was not diligent about his Bible reading, his prayers, and the use of his Sundays.

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

If Christ had not gone to the cross and suffered in our stead, the just for the unjust, there would not have been a spark of hope for us. There would have been a mighty gulf between ourselves and God, which no man ever could have passed.
