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

The Gospel acts without threats... it teaches us about the supreme goodwill of God towards us.

Surely in Judas' betrayal it will be no more right, because God both willed that his Son be delivered up, and delivered him up to death, to ascribe the guilt of the crime to God than to transfer the credit for redemption to Judas.

I don't need to compromise my principles, because they don't have the slightest bearing on what happens to me anyway.

As far as sacred Scripture is concerned, however much froward men try to gnaw at it, nevertheless it clearly is crammed with thoughts that could not be humanly conceived. Let each of the prophets be looked into: none will be found who does not far exceed human measure. Consequently, those for whom prophetic doctrine is tasteless ought to be thought of as lacking taste buds.

When pain and suffering strike, our faith is well founded if it is standing on the promises of God. For all of God's promises have strong confirmation in Christ.

Man is never sufficiently touched and affected by the awareness of his lowly state until he has compared himself with God's majesty.
