True preaching is the sweating of blood.

The man whose little sermon is ‘repent’ sets himself against his age, and will for the time being be battered mercilessly by the age whose moral tone he challenges. There is but one end for such a man—‘off with his head!’ You had better not try to preach repentance until you have pledged your head to heaven

Everywhere I find the signature, the autograph of God, and he will never deny his own handwriting. God has set his tabernacle in the dewdrop as surely as in the sun. No man can any more create the smallest flower than he could create the greatest world.

Only Christ could have conceived Christ.

Never throw mud. You may miss the mark, and you'll have dirty hands.

The truly religious man does everything as if everything depends on himself, and then leaves everything as if everything depended on God.

Sin is a clenched fist and a blow in the face of God.
