On the one hand stand salvation by free grace for Christ's sake; but on the other stands renewal of the carnal heart by the Spirit. We must be changed as well as forgiven; we must be renewed as well as redeemed.

No doubt men may easily think too little of God the Father, and God the Spirit, but no man ever thought too much of Christ.

A man's state before God may always be measured by his prayers.

All converted people should labor to adorn the doctrine they profess by humility. If they can do nothing else, they can strive to be humble.

Inability to distinguish doctrine is spreading far and wide, and so long as the preacher is "clever" and "earnest," hundreds seem to think it must be all right, and call you dreadfully "narrow and uncharitable" if you hint that he is unsound!

Do you wish to grow in grace and be a holy Christian? Then never forget the value of prayer.
