Carnal reason is an enemy to faith: it is ever crossing and contradicting it. It will never be well with thee, Christian, so long as thou art swayed by carnal reason, and you rely more upon thy five senses, than upon the four Evangelists. As the body lives by breathing, so the soul lives by believing.

Your life is short, your duties many, your assistance great, and your reward sure; therefore faint not, hold on and hold up, in ways of well-doing, and heaven shall make amends for all

Satan often paints sin with virtue's colors.

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

Weak Christians are afraid of the shadow of the cross.

Truth is mighty and will prevail

There is the seed of all sins--of the vilest and worst of sins--in the best of men.
