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.
William GurnallThere is no such way to be even with the devil and his instruments, for all their spite against us, as by doing what good we can wherever we be come.
William GurnallFurnish thyself with arguments from the promises to enforce thy prayers, and make them prevalent with God. The promises are the ground of faith, and faith, when strengthened, will make thee fervent, and such fervency ever speeds and returns with victory out of the field of prayer. The mightier any is in the Word, the more mighty he will be in prayer.
William GurnallHe that is impatient, and cannot wait on God for a mercy, will not easily submit to Him in a denial.
