That wisdom which cannot teach me that God is love, shall ever pass for folly.

No man shall ever behold the glory of Christ by sight hereafter who does not in some measure behold it here by faith.

It is not the glorious battlements, the painted windows, the crouching gargoyles that support a building, but the stones that lie unseen in or upon the earth. It is often those who are despised and trampled on that bear up the weight of a whole nation.

It is evident that you contend against sin merely because of how it troubles you.

So great an advantage is given to sin and Satan by your temper and disposition, that without extraordinary watchfulness, care, and diligence, they will prevail against your soul.

To those to whom Christ is the hope of future glory, he is also the life of present grace.

When someone sets his affections upon the cross and the love of Christ, he crucifies the world as a dead and undesirable thing. The baits of sin lose their attraction and disappear. Fill your affections with the cross of Christ and you will find no room for sin.
