A Christian is a walking sermon. They preach far more than a minister does, for they preach all week long.

The early Christians made it a part of their religion to look for His return. Backward they looked to the cross and the atonement for sin, and rejoiced in Christ crucified. Upward they looked to Christ at the right hand of God, and rejoiced in Christ interceding. Forward they looked to the promised return of their Master, and rejoiced in the thought that they would see Him again. And we ought to do the same.

We should no more tolerate false doctrine that we would tolerate sin.

What would you expect? Sin will not come to you saying, 'I am sin.' It would do little harm if it did. Sin always seems 'good, pleasant and desirable' at the time of arrival.

The love of Christ towards His people is a deep well which has no bottom.

Young men, I beseech you earnestly, beware of pride. Two things are said to be very rare sights in the world- one is a young man that is humble, and the other is an old man that is content. I fear that this is only too true.

Let it never surprise true Christians if they are slandered and misrepresented in this world. They must not expect to fare better than their Lord.
