To forsake sin, is to leave it without any thought reserved of returning to it again.

We must come to good works by faith, and not to faith by good works.

Mercy should make us ashamed, wrath afraid to sin.

Paul was Nero's prisoner, but Nero was much more God's... But how does the great apostle spend his time in prison?... We read of no dispatches sent to court to procure his liberty; but many to the churches, to help them to stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ had made them free... The devil had as good have let Paul alone, for he no sooner comes into prison but he falls a preaching, at which the gates of Satan's prison fly open, and poor sinners come forth.

Of all creatures in this visible world, light is the most glorious; of all light, the light of the sun without compare excels the rest.

Cease to pray and thou will begin to sin. Prayer is not only a means to prevail for mercy but also to prevent sin.
