...but let it suffice us to know that it became God, who is the supreme Ruler, Governor and Judge of all that sin should be punished with death in the sinner or his surety; and therefore if God would bring many sons to glory, the Captain of their salvation must undergo sufferings and death, to make satisfaction for them.

Christ's blood is the great sovereign remedy for sin-sick souls.

Mortification is the soul's vigorous opposition to self, wherein sincerity is most evident.

We shall not benefit from reading the Old Testament unless we look for and meditate on the glory of Christ in its pages.

On Christ’s glory I would fix all my thoughts and desires, and the more I see of the glory of Christ, the more the painted beauties of this world will wither in my eyes and I will be more and more crucified to this world. It will become to me like something dead and putrid, impossible for me to enjoy.

The choicest believers, who are assuredly freed from the condemning power of sin, ought yet to make it their business all their days to mortify the indwelling power of sin.

Only what God has commanded in His word should be regarded as binding; in all else there may be liberty of actions.
