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

By affliction He teaches us many precious lessons, which without it we should never learn. By affliction He shows us our emptiness and weakness, draws us to the throne of grace, purifies our affections, weans us from the world, makes us long for heaven.

The hand of the wicked can't stir one moment before God allows them to begin, and...one moment after God commands them to stop.

We want more men and women who walk with God and before God, like Enoch and Abraham.

True Christian is not an angel; he is not a halfangelic being, in whom is no weakness, or blemish, or infirmity: he is nothing of the kind. He is nothing more than a sinner who has found out his sinfulness, and has learned the blessed secret of living by faith in Christ.

Nothing so hardens the heart of man as a barren familiarity with sacred things.

So long as you do not quarrel with sin, you will never be a truly happy man.
