Of all the knowledge that we can ever obtain, the knowledge of God, and the knowledge of ourselves, are the most important.

If there be ground for you to trust in your own righteousness, then, all that Christ did to purchase salvation, and all that God did to prepare the way for it is in vain.

The happiness of the creature consists in rejoicing in God, by which also God is magnified and exalted.

There is, therefore, no difficulty in answering such questions as these. What cause was there why the Universe was placed in such a part of Space? and, Why was the Universe created at such a Time? for, if there be no Space beyond the Universe, it was impossible that it should be created in another place; and if there was no Time before, it was impossible it should be created at another time.

I assert that nothing ever comes to pass without a cause.

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

By Christ's purchasing redemption, two things are intended: his satisfaction and his merit; the one pays our debt, and so satisfies; the other procures our title, and so merits. The satisfaction of Christ is to free us from misery; the merit of Christ is to purchase happiness for us.
