The Bible must be the invention of either good men or angels, bad men or devils, or of God. It could not be the invention of good men or angels, for they neither would or could make a book, and tell lies all the time they were writing it, saying, 'Thus saith the Lord,' when it was their own invention. It could not be the invention of bad men or devils, for they would not make a book which commands all duty, forbids all sin, and condemns their souls to hell for all eternity. Therefore, I draw this conclusion, that the Bible must be given by divine inspiration.

I judge all things only by the price they shall gain in eternity.

I am never in a hurry, because I never undertake more work than I can go through with perfect calmness of spirit.

Read the most useful books, and that regularly and constantly.

Until my work on this earth is done, I am immortal. But when my work for Christ is done ... I go to be with Jesus

I look upon all the world as my parish.

If I had 300 men who feared nothing but God, hated nothing but sin, and were determined to know nothing among men but Jesus Christ and Him crucified, I would set the world on fire.
