A man will be justified by faith when, excluded from righteousness of works, he by faith lays hold of the righteousness of Christ, and clothed in it, appears in the sight of God not as a sinner, but as righteous.

We are nowhere forbidden to laugh.

But as a heathen tells us, there is no nation so barbarous, no race so brutish as not to be imbued with the conviction that there is a God.

It is therefore faith alone which justifies, and yet the faith which justifies is not alone.

To make intercession for men is the most powerful and practical way in which we can express our love for them.

It behooves us to accomplish what God requires of us, even when we are in the greatest despair respecting the results.

Humility is the beginning of true intelligence.
