The Word of God is too sacred a thing, and preaching too solemn a work, to be toyed and played with.

It is the image of God reflected in you that so enrages hell; it is this at which the demons hurl their mightiest weapons.

Justifying faith is not a naked assent to the truths of the gospel.

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.

The regenerating Spirit is compared to the wind. His first attempts on the soul may be so secret that the creature knows not whence they come, or whither they tend; but, before he hath done, the sound will be heard throughout the soul.

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

Christ hath told us He will come, but not when, that we might never put off our clothes, or put out the candle.
