A minister, without boldness, is like a smooth file, a knife without an edge, a sentinel that is afraid to let off his gun. If men will be bold in sin, ministers must be bold to reprove.

Nothing is more contrary to a heavenly hope than an earthly heart.

Praying is the same to the new creature as crying is to the natural. The child is not learned by art or example to cry, but instructed by nature; it comes into the world crying. Praying is not a lesson got by forms and rules of art, but flowing from principles of new life itself.

Weak faith will as surely land the Christian in heaven as strong faith, for it is impossible the least dram of true grace should perish

Thou hast no life to lose, because thou hast given it already to Christ, nor can man take away that without God's leave.

CEASE to PRAY and thou will BEGIN to SIN.

Few are made better by prosperity, whom afflictions make worse.
