The Gospel is nothing less than laughter and joy.

First I shake the whole Apple tree, that the ripest might fall. Then I climb the tree and shake each limb, and then each branch and then each twig, and then I look under each leaf.

The church converteth the whole world by blood and prayer.

Every man must do two things alone; he must do his own believing and his own dying.

A man must completely despair of himself in order to become fit to obtain the grace of Christ.

Those who turn proud when their praise is sounded, who seek their own glory, not Christ's, or those who are moved by slanders and by infamy, had better leave the ministry of the Word.

It is pleasing to the dear God whenever thou rejoicest or laughest from the bottom of thy heart.
