Spiritual delight in God arises chiefly from his beauty and perfection, not from the blessings he gives us.

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.

The devil can counterfeit all the saving operations and graces of the Spirit of God.

Wicked people will on the day of judgment see all there is to see of Jesus Christ, except His beauty and loveliness

Among the many acts of gratitude we owe to God, it may be accounted one to study and contemplate the perfections and beauties of His work of creation. Every new discovery must necessarily raise in us a fresh sense of the greatness, wisdom, and power of God.

The ingenerating of a principle of grace in the soul seems in Scripture to be compared to the conceiving of Christ in the womb...

Salvation is so great a thing, so glorious an attainment, that 'tis worth the while for a man to do his utmost every day during his whole life in the use of all proper means that he may attain.
