All these things He must be in me, abiding, living, speaking in me; that I may be the righteousness of God in Him (2 Cor. v. 21); not in love, nor in gifts and graces which follow; but in Him.

I have done nothing; the Word has done and accomplished everything.... I let the Word do its work!

Strange, though I am saved from sin, I am not saved from sinning.

Medicine makes people ill, mathematics make them sad and theology makes them sinful.

Prayer, study, and suffering make a pastor.

For all works and things, which are either commanded or forbidden by God and thus have been instituted by the supreme Majesty, are 'musts.' Nevertheless, no one should be dragged to them or away from them by the hair, for I can drive no man to heaven or beat him into it with a club.

Thoughts are not subject to duty.
