Christian practice is that evidence which confirms every other indication of true godliness.

A greater absurdity cannot be thought of than a morose, hardhearted, covetous, proud, malicious Christian.

There are people who love those who agree with them and admire them, but have no time for those who oppose and dislike them. A Christian’s love must be universal!

Envy is a spirit of dissatisfaction or opposition to the prosperity or happiness of other people.

True salvation always produces an abiding change of nature in a true convert. Therefore, whenever holiness of life does not accompany a confession of conversion, it must be understood that this individual is not a Christian.

It is not by telling people about ourselves that we demonstrate our Christianity. Words are cheap. It is by costly, self-denying Christian practice that we show the reality of our faith.

Resolved to live with all my might while I do live, and as I shall wish I had done ten thousand years hence.

Resolved, never henceforward, till I die, to act as if I were any way my own, but entirely and altogether God's.
