If you would get a fair estimate of the happiness of any man, you must judge him in these two closely connected things: his life and his death. The heathen Solon said, “Call no man happy until he is dead, for you do not know what changes may pass upon him in life.” We add to that, “Call no man happy…

I like the remark of the people who were requested to accept a Universalist as a minister. They said, “You have come to tell us that there is no hell. If your doctrine is true, we certainly do not need you; and if it is not true, we do not want you. Either way, we can do without you.” It is a most dreadful…

In every work we undertake, it is most important that we should act on right principles.

At present, it is with us as it is with the world during the winter.

John Wesley once said, “Now, if I knew I should die tomorrow morning, I would do exactly what I have planned to do. I should take the class meeting at such an hour, preach at such an hour, and be up at such a time in the morning to pray.” That good man’s life was spent in prospect of sudden departure,…
