The gospel is not a doctrine of the tongue, but of life. It cannot be grasped by reason and memory only, but it is fully understood when it possesses the whole soul and penetrates to the inner recesses of the heart.

There is no worse screen to block out the Spirit than confidence in our own intelligence.

Man's nature, so to speak, is a perpetual factory of idols.

God does not bestow his spirit on his people in order to set aside the use of his word, but rather to render it fruitful.

Faith alone saves, but the faith that saves is not alone.

The torture of a bad conscience is the hell of a living soul.

Faith is not a distant view, but a warm embrace of Christ.
