A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.

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

But, as sculpture and painting are gifts of God, what I insist on is, that both shall be used purely and lawfully, that gifts which the Lord has bestowed upon us, for His glory and our good, shall not be preposterously abused, nay, shall not be perverted to our destruction.

Faith is like an empty, open hand stretched out towards God, with nothing to offer and everything to recieve

The name of Christ excludes all merit of our own.

For until men recognize that they owe everything to God, that they are nourished by His fatherly care, that He is the Author of their every good, that they should seek nothing beyond Him - they will never yield Him willing service. Nay, unless they establish their complete happiness in Him, they will never give themselves truly and sincerely to Him.

This is plainly to ascribe divinity to 'free will.'
