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

The door of God’s mercy is thrown wide open, and Christ stands in the door and says to sinners ‘Come.’

Christ gives peace to the most sinful and miserable that come to Him. He heals the broken in heart and binds up their wounds.

Resolved, never to do anything out of revenge.

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.

He that has doctrinal knowledge and speculation only, without affection, never is engaged in the business of religion.

I resolve to live with all my might while I do live. I resolve never to lose one moment of time and to improve my use of time in the most profitable way I possibly can. I resolve never to do anything I wouldn't do, if it were the last hour of my life.
