The beauty of holiness is that which the grave, that consumes all other beauty, cannot touch, or do any damage to.

In all God's providences, it is good to compare His word and His works together; for we shall find a beautiful harmony between them, and that they mutually illustrate each other.

All obedience begins in the affections, and nothing in religion is done right, that is not done there first.

It is easy to be religious when religion is in fashion; but it is an evidence of strong faith and resolution to swim against a stream to heaven, and to appear for God when no one else appears for Him.

Sanctified afflictions are spiritual promotions.

We best oppose error by promoting a solid knowledge of the word of truth, and the greatest kindness we can do to children, is to make them early to know the Bible.

Scriptures were written, not to satisfy our curiosity and make us astronomers, but to lead us to God, and make us saints.
