Affliction may be lasting, but it is not everlasting. Affliction was a sting, but withal a wing: sorrow shall soon fly away.

The more we enjoy of God, the more we are ravished with delight.

Some have asked whether we shall know one another in heaven? Surely, our knowledge will not be diminished, but increased. The judgement of Luther and Anselm, and many other divines is, that we shall know one another; yea, the saints of all ages, whose faces we never saw; and, when we shall see the saints in glory without their infirmities of pride end passion, it will be a glorious sight.

Better have men reproach you for being good, than have God damn you for being wicked. Be not laughed out of your religion. If a lame man laugh at you for walking upright, will you therefore limp?

If a wicked man seems to have peace at death, it is not from the knowledge of his happiness, but from the ignorance of his danger.

There is more evil in a drop of sin than in a sea of affliction.

Praising God is one of the highest and purest acts of religion. In prayer we act like men; in praise we act like angels.
