It is better to preach five words of God’s Word than five million words of man’s wisdom.
You and your sins must separate, or you and your God will never come together.
I believe the hard heartest, most cross grained and most unloving Christians in all the world are those who have not had much trouble in their life. And those that are the most sympathizing, loving and Christlike are generally those who have the most affliction. The worse thing that can happen to any of us is to have a path made too smooth. One of the greatest blessings the Lord ever gave us was a cross.
Think not of the sinner or the greatness of his sin, but think of the greatness of the Savior!
Oh, my brothers and sisters in Christ, if sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies; and if they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, imploring them to stay, and not madly to destroy themselves. If hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for.
It is a good rule never to look into the face of a man in the morning till you have looked into the face of God.
We are in a wrong state of mind if we are not in a thankful state of mind.
I am persuaded that men think there is no God because they wish there were none. They find it hard to believe in God, and to go on in sin, so they try to get an easy conscience by denying his existence.
Without the Spirit of God, we can do nothing. We are as ships without wind. We are useless.
Hang that question up in your houses, "What would Jesus do?" and then think of another, "How would Jesus do it?" for what he would do, and how he would do it, may always stand as the best guide to us.
Lord, send Your life throughout the entire church. Visit Your church; restore sound doctrine and holy, earnest living. Take away from professing Christians their love of frivolities, their attempts to meet the world on it's own ground, and give back the old love of the doctrines of the Cross and Christ. May free grace and dying love again be the music that refreshes the church and makes her heart exceeding glad.
A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.
There may be some sins of which a man cannot speak, but there is no sin which the blood of Christ cannot wash away.
A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
If God lights the candle, none can blow it out.
Thus there will be three effects of nearness to Jesus humility, happiness, and holiness.
Nobody ever outgrows Scripture; the book widens and deepens with our years.
When you think of what you are, and despair; think also of what He is, and take heart.
To pray is to mount on eagle's wings above the clouds and get into the clear heaven where God dwelleth.
Only the prayer which comes from our heart can get to God's heart.
Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom.
By perseverance the snail reached the ark.
You say, 'If I had a little more, I should be very satisfied.' You make a mistake. If you are not content with what you have, you would not be satisfied if it were doubled.
Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God; and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works; and he that is without works is without faith.
That very church which the world likes best is sure to be that which God abhors.
