Christ bounds and terminates the vast desires of the soul; He is the very Sabbath of the soul.

No doctrine is more excellent, or necessary to be preached and studied, than Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

It is the great support and solace of the saints in all the distresses that befall them here, that there is a wise Spirit sitting in all the wheels of motion, and governing the most eccentric creatures and their most pernicious designs to blessed and happy issues.

Christ [is] the very essence of all delights and pleasures, the very soul and substance of them. As all the rivers are gathered into the ocean, which is congregation or meeting-place of all waters in the world: so Christ is that ocean in which all true delights and pleasures meet. . . .

If God has given you but a small portion of the world, yet if you are godly He has promised never to forsake you (Heb. 13:5). Providence has ordered that condition for you which is really best for your eternal good. If you had more of the world than you have, your heads and hearts might not be able to manage it to your advantage.

The carnal person fears man, not God. The strong Christian fears God, not man. The weak Christian fears man too much, and God too little.
