When we know God to be our Father, should we not desire that he be known as such by all? And if we do not have this passion, that all creatures do him homage, is it not a sign that his glory means little to us?

Our true wisdom is to embrace with meek docility, and without reservation, whatever the holy scriptures have delivered.

Unless God's Word illumine the way, the whole life of men is wrapped in darkness and mist, so that they cannot but miserably stray.

If we are given gold, would we not test it to determine it's value? If we doubted its genuineness - we would test it by fire...and so God with us.

Free-will cannot will good and of necessity serves sin.

We shall never be fit for the service of God, if we look not beyond this fleeting life.

Nothing is more dangerous than to be blinded by prosperity.
