It was the whole Trinity, which at the beginning of creation said, "Let us make man". It was the whole Trinity again, which at the beginning of the Gospel seemed to say, "Let us save man".

Persecution, in short, is like the goldsmith's stamp on real silver and gold - it is one of the marks of a converted man.

I must honestly declare my conviction that, since the days of the Reformation, there never has been so much profession of religion without practice, so much talking about God without walking with Him, so much hearing God's words without doing them.

Conversion is not putting a man in an armchair and taking him easily to heaven. It is the beginning of a mighty conflict, in which it costs much to win the victory.

Tomorrow is the devil's day, but today is God's. Satan does not care how spiritual your intentions are, or how holy your resolutions, if only they are determined to be done tomorrow.

The love of our Lord Jesus Christ towards sinners is strikingly shown in His steady purpose of heart to die for them.

When you cannot answer a skeptic, be content to wait for more light; but never forsake a great principle.
