Keep up a humble sense of your own faults, and that will make you compassionate to others

Paganism attributes the creation of the world to blind chance.

The devils never had a Savior offered to them, but you have; and do you yet make light of Him?

Lay siege to your sins, and starve them out by keeping away the food and fuel which is their maintenance and life.

Will any man that hath not lost his senses, now stand caviling, and quarrelling, that so few should be saved, instead of making sure of his own salvation? The reason that there are so few is, because they will not be saved upon God's terms.

I like to hear a man dwell much on the same essentials of Christianity. For we have but one God, and one Christ, and one faith to preach; and I will not preach another Gospel to please men with variety, as if our Saviour and our Gospel had grown stale.

It is true, that men may have Christ whenever they are willing to comply with His terms. But if you are not willing now, how can you think you shall be willing hereafter?
