If we are proud of our talents we betray our lack of gratitude to God.

We are not to look to what men in themselves deserve but to attend to the image of God which exists in all and to which we owe all honor and love.

Let us be peaceable as near as we can: let us relent of our own right: let us not strive for these worldly goods, honour and reputation: let us bear all wrongs and outrages, rather than be moved to any debate through our own fault. But in the meanwhile, let us fight for God's truth with tooth and nail.

If grace acts in us, grace, and not we who do the work, will be crowned.

For there is no one so great or mighty that he can avoid the misery that will rise up against him when he resists and strives against God.

Faith consists not in ignorance, but in knowledge - knowledge not of God merely...but when we recognize God as a propitious Father through the reconciliation made by Christ, and Christ as given to us for righteousness, sanctification, and life.

The Holy Spirit is the bond by which Christ efficaciously unites us to himself.
