Godliness is more easily feigned in words than in actions

Resolved, never to do anything which I should be afraid to do if it were the last hour of my life.

To mark all that I say in conversation, merely to beget in others, a good opinion of myself, and examine it.

We have seen that the Son of God created the world for this very end, to communicate Himself in an image of His own excellency. ... When we behold the light and brightness of the sun, the golden edges of an evening cloud, or the beauteous (rain)bow, we behold the adumbrations of His glory and goodness; and in the blue sky, of his mildness and gentleness.

True virtue never appears so lovely as when it is most oppressed; and the divine excellency of real Christianity is never exhibited with such advantage as when under the greatest trials; then it is that true faith appears much more precious than gold, and upon this account is "found to praise and honour and glory.

The Spirit of God is given to the true saints to dwell in them as his proper lasting abode to dwell in them and to influence their hearts as a principle of new nature or as a divine supernatural spring of life and action.

The best, most beautiful, and most perfect way that we have of expressing a sweet concord of mind to each other is by music.
