Angels are the dispensers and administrators of the divine beneficence toward us.

We must remember that Satan has his miracles, too.

Faith consists, not in ignorance, but in knowledge, and that, not only of God, but also of the divine will.

Only those who have learned well to be earnestly dissatisfied with themselves, and to be confounded with shame at their wretchedness truly understand the Christian gospel.

Now we shall possess a right definition of faith if we call it a firm and certain knowledge of God's benevolence toward us, founded upon the truth of the freely given promise in Christ, both revealed to our minds and sealed upon our hearts through the Holy Spirit.

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.

Life is not found in commandments or declarations of penalties, but in the promise of mercy and only in a gratuitous promise.
