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

Two sorts of peace are more to be dreaded than all the troubles in the world — peace with sin, and peace in sin.

A man may as certainly miscarry by his seeming righteousness and supposed graces, as by gross sins; and that is, when a man doth trust in these as his righteousness before God, for the satisfying His justice, appeasing His wrath, procuring His favor, and obtaining his own pardon.

Woe unto thee if after all thy profession thou shouldst be found under the power of ignorance, lost in formality, drowned in earthly-mindedness, envenomed with malice, exalted in an opinion of thine own righteousness, leavened with hypocrisy and carnal ends in God's service.

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

If thy hope be any thing worth, it will purify thee from thy sins.

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.
