God hath made it a debt which one saint owes to another to carry their names to a throne of grace.

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

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

Let thy hope of heaven master thy fear of death.

Bid faith look through the key-hole of the promise, and tell thee what it sees there laid up for him that overcomes; bid it listen and tell thee whether it cannot hear the shout of those crowned saints, as of those that are dividing the spoil, and receiving the reward of all their services and sufferings here on earth.

Mercy should make us ashamed, wrath afraid to sin.

Truly, hope is the saint's covering, wherein he wraps himself, when he lays his body down to sleep in the grave: "My flesh," saith David, "shall rest in hope."
