However corrupt our hearts, and however wicked our past lives, there is hope for us in the Gospel.

Surely if there be any habit which your own hand and eye should help in forming, it is the habit of prayer.

Let us receive nothing, believe nothing, follow nothing which is not in the Bible, nor can be proved by the Bible.

According to the men of the world, few are going to hell; According to the Bible, few are going to heaven.

All the simplicity in the world can do no good, unless you preach the simple gospel of Jesus Christ so fully and clearly that everybody can understand it. If 'Christ crucified' has not His rightful place in your sermons, and sin is not exposed as it should be, and your people are not plainly told what they ought to believe, and be, and do - your preaching is of no use!

I am one of those old-fashioned ministers who believe the whole Bible and everything that it contains.

I should as soon expect a farmer to prosper in business who contented himself with sowing his fields and never looking at them till harvest, as expect a believer to attain much holiness who was not diligent about his Bible reading, his prayers, and the use of his Sundays.
