Real repentance means coming not only to be sorry for the consequences of sin but to hate sin itself.

Certainly Christianity is an experience, but equally clearly the validity of ane experience has to be tested. There are people in lunatic asylums who have the experience of being the Emperor Napoleon or a poached egg. It is unquestionably an experience, and to them a real experience, but for all that it has no kind of universal validity. It is necessary to go far beyond simply saying that something comes from experience. Before any such thing can be evaluated at all, the source and character of the experience must clearly be investigated.

We will often find compensation if we think more of what life has given us and less about what life has taken away.

The Christian man must aim at that complete obedience to God in which life finds its highest happiness, its greatest good, its perfect consummation, its peace.

The greatest thing is a life of obedience in the routine things of everyday life. No amount of fine feeling can take the place of faithful doing.

Christian freedom does not mean being free to do as we like; it means being free to do as we ought.

A man may well be condemned, not for doing something, but for doing nothing.
