The bible is a remarkable fountain: the more one draws and drinks of it, the more it stimulates thirst.

None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience.

The inner man cannot be forced to do out of his own free will, what he should do, except the grace of God change the heart and make it willing.

The proverb has it that Hunger is the best cook. The Law makes afflicted consciences hungry for Christ. Christ tastes good to them. Hungry hearts appreciate Christ. Thirsty souls are what Christ wants. He invites them: Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Christ's benefits are so precious that He will dispense them only to those who need them and really desire them.

When the gospel flourishes in the church, everything flourishes with it.

Forgiveness is God's command.

Peace if possible, truth at all costs.
