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.

Men are idol factories.

Faith does not proceed from ourselves, but is the fruit of spiritual regeneration.

The grace of God has no charms for men till the Holy Spirit gives them a taste for it.
