Hearing alone is less effective in learning God's truth than hearing combined with reading.

God's commandments not only reflect His holiness, they promote our happiness.

Fear of God and love for God coexist happily in the heart of people who are rightly related to Him.

God supplies the needs of His people according to their needs but does not ordinarily allow stockpiling.

What we do in public determines our reputation; what we do in private determines our character.

Believers have just as much to fear from legalism as from waywardness. The first detracts from the beauty of the message, while the second mars it content.

The heart that delights in God and longs only to see His glory advance will seldom be conscious of sacrifice. God in His wisdom asks that we first love Him and then live in keeping with that core value. He does not want His people to think of what they do as sacrificial, even though from the world's point of view it may be just that. Gratitude for grace of God will always be found near the center of the Biblical Christian's most powerful motivations.
