We take nothing to the grave with us, but a good or evil conscience... It is true, terrors of conscience cast us down; and yet without terrors of conscience we cannot be raised up again.
Samuel RutherfordThrough many afflictions we must enter into the kingdom of God ... It is folly to think to steal to heaven with a whole skin.
Samuel RutherfordYe have lost a child--nay, she is not lost to you, who is found to Christ; she is not sent away, but only sent before; like unto a star, which going out of our sight, doth not die and vanish, but shineth in another hemisphere.
