"I take leave to contradict those who say that salvation is an evolution! All that ever can be evolved out of the sinful heart of man is sin-and nothing else! Salvation is the free gift of God, by Jesus Christ, and the work of it is supernatural. It is done by the Lord Himself, and He has power to do it, however weak, no, however dead in sin, the sinner may be!"
"When your will is God's will, you will have your will."
"The Christian should work as if all depended upon him, and pray as if it all depended upon God."
"A sense of the divine presence and indwelling bears the soul towards heaven as upon the wings of eagles."
"When you see no present advantage, walk by faith and not by sight. Do God the honor to trust Him when it comes to matters of loss for the sake of principle."
"Hope itself is like a star- not to be seen in the sunshine of prosperity, and only to be discovered in the night of adversity."
