Those years, months, weeks, days, and hours, that are not filled up with God, with Christ, with grace, and with duty, will certainly be filled up with vanity and folly. The neglect of one day, of one duty, of one hour, would undo us, if we had not an Advocate with the Father.

Sin is bad in the eye, worse in the tongue, worse still in the heart, but worst of all in the life.

Pleasures seem solid in their pursuit; but are mere clouds in the enjoyment.

Sin may rebel, but it shall never reign in any saint.

Sin will usher in the greatest and the saddest losses that can be upon our souls.

There is no such way to get much grace, as to be thankful for a little grace. He who opens his mouth wide in praise, shall have his heart lled with graces. Ingratitude stops the ear of God, and shuts the hand of God, and turns away the heart of the God of grace; and therefore we had need to be thankful for a little grace.

An idle life and a holy heart is a contradiction.
