Those who are in a state of salvation are to attribute it to sovereign grace alone, and to give all the praise to Him who maketh them to differ from others.

Teachers and learners are correlates, one of which was never intended to be without the other.

The seeking of the kingdom of God is the chief business of the Christian life

Prayer is as natural an expression of faith as breathing is of life.

A greater absurdity cannot be thought of than a morose, hardhearted, covetous, proud, malicious Christian.

We cannot believe that the church of God is already possessed of all that light which God intends to give it; nor that all Satan's lurking places have already been found out.

Christ is like a river in another respect. A river is continually flowing, there are fresh supplies of water coming from the fountain-head continually, so that a man may live by it, and be supplied with water all his life. So Christ is an ever-flowing fountain; he is continually supplying his people, and the fountain is not spent. They who live upon Christ, may have fresh supplies from him to all eternity; they may have an increase of blessedness that is new, and new still, and which never will come to an end.
