Where God's Spirit does not reign, there is no humility, and men ever swell with inward pride.

All true knowledge of God is born out of obedience.

That man is truly humble who neither claims any personal merit in the sight of God, nor proudly despises brethren, or aims at being thought superior to them, but reckons it enough that he is one of the members of Christ, and desires nothing more than that the Head alone should be exalted.

Nothing is more dangerous than to be blinded by prosperity.

If God does nothing random, there must always be something to learn.

If the gospel be not preached, Jesus Christ is, as it were, buried.

Men will never worship God with a sincere heart, or be roused to fear and obey Him with sufficient zeal, until they properly understand how much they are indebted to His mercy.
