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

We must beat the Gospel into peoples' heads incessantly because it's the one thing we're prone to forget.

Christ is the master; the Scriptures are only the servant.

For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver.

Sleep is a most useful and most salutary operation of nature. Scarcely any minor annoyance angers me more than the being suddenly awakened out of a pleasant slumber. I understand that in Italy they torture poor people by depriving them of sleep. `Tis a torture that cannot long be endured.

Good works do not make a good man, but a good man does good works.

When God's righteousness is mentioned in the gospel, it is God's action of declaring righteous the unrighteous sinner who has faith in Jesus Christ. The righteousness by which a person is justified (declared righteous) is not his own but that of another, Christ.
