It is not he who knows most, nor he who hears most, nor yet he who talks most, but he who exercises grace most, who has most communion with God.

To repent of sin is as great a mark of grace as not to sin.

Till men have faith in Christ, their best services are but glorious sins.

When you have overcome one temptation, you must be ready to enter the lists with another. As distrust, in some sense, is the mother of safety, so security is the gate of danger.

Sin in a wicked man is like poison in a serpent; it is in its natural place.

Though there is nothing more dangerous, yet there is nothing more ordinary, than for weak saints to make their sense and feeling the judge of their condition. We must strive to walk by faith.

We trust as we love, and where we love. If we love Christ much, surely we shall trust him much.
