The curses of the ungodly are more pleasing to God's ears than the hallelujahs of the pious

World, death, devil, hell, away and leave me in peace! You have no hold on me. If you will not let me live, then I will die. But you won't succeed in that. Chop my head off, and it won't harm me. I have a God who will give me a new one.

True faith will no more fail to produce [good works] than the sun can cease to give light.

Faith is a living, daring, confidence in God's grace.

Reason is the greatest enemy that faith has; it never comes to the aid of spiritual things, but more frequently than not struggles against the divine Word, treating with contempt all that emanates from God.

The gospel cannot be truly preached without offense and tumult.

Though we be active in the battle, if we are not fighting where the battle is the hottest, we are traitors to the cause.
