When a man’s heart is cold and unconcerned about religion – when his hands are never employed in doing God’s work – when his feet are not familiar with God’s ways – when his tongue is seldom or never used in prayer and praise – when his eyes are blind to the beauty of the kingdom of heaven – when his mind is full of the world, and has no room for spiritual things – when these marks are to be found in a man the word of the Bible is the right word to use about him, and that word is, ‘Dead.’

Except a man be born again, he will wish one day he had never been born at all.

The cause of Christ does not need less working, but it does need among the workers, more praying.

We are all so sunk in sin, and so wedded to the world, that we would never turn to God and seek salvation, unless He first called us by His grace. Without a divine call, no one can be saved.

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

A trial is an instrument by which our Father in heaven makes Christians more holy.

The nearer we live to God while we live, the more ready we will be to dwell forever in His presence when we die.
