The sum is, that the worship of God must be spiritual, in order that it may correspond with His nature. For although Moses only speaks of idolatry, yet there is no doubt but that by synecdoche, as in all the rest of the law, he condemns all fictitious services which men in their ingenuity have invented.

The one condition for spiritual progress is that we remain sincere and humble.

Let us not cease to do the utmost, that we may incessantly go forward in the way of the Lord; and let us not despair of the smallness of our accomplishments.

Let our chief goal, O God, be your glory, and to enjoy You forever.

If a preacher is not first preaching to himself, better that he falls on the steps of the pulpit and breaks his neck than preaches that sermon.

So great and boundless is God's wisdom that he knows right well how to use evil instruments to do good.

Against the persecution of a tyrant the godly have no remedy but prayer.
