The Law was given by Moses; the moral law, to discover the extent and abounding sin; the ceremonial law, to point out, by typical sacrifices and ablutions, the way in which forgiveness was to be sought and obtained. But grace, to relieve us from the condemnation of the one, and truth answerable to the types and shadows of the other, came by Jesus Christ.

Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home.

If we venture beyond the pale of Scripture, we are...exposed to all the illusions of imagination and enthusiasm.

Thou art coming to a King, large petitions with thee bring, for His grace and power are such none can ever ask too much.

I know not a better rule of reading the Scripture, than to read it through from beginning to end and when we have finished it once, to begin it again. We shall meet with many passages which we can make little improvement of, but not so many in the second reading as in the first, and fewer in the third than in the second: provided we pray to him who has the keys to open our understandings, and to anoint our eyes with His spiritual ointment.

So dress and conduct yourself so that people who have been in your company will not recall what you had on.

Although my memory's fading, I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.
