None are drawn to Christ by their calling, nor come to him by believing, but only his sheep, those whom the Father has given him,. Effectual calling runs parallel with eternal election.

Come from your knees to the sermon, and come from the sermon to your knees

For a soul to come to Jesus, is the grandest event in its history.

The Lord Jesus Christ would have the whole world to know, that though He pardons sin, He will not protect it.

Conversion is a work above man's power... Never think you can convert yourself. If ever you would be savingly converted, you must despair of doing it in your own strength. It is a resurrection from the dead, a new creation, a work of absolute omnipotence... Conversion is a supernatural work.

Christ does not control his subjects by force, but is King of a willing people. They are, through His grace, freely devoted to His service.

Converting grace puts God on the throne, and the world at His footstool; Christ in the heart, and the world under Hisfeet.
