The Christian feels that when Christ is exalted, it is himself exalted in some degree, seeing he has sympathy with his desire of promoting the great cause and honor of God in the world. I have no doubt that every common soldier who stood by the side of the Duke of Wellington felt honored when the commander…

Of all the people whom I have ever met with who have told me that they were perfect, I can say that I was morally certain they were not. They had only to talk for about five minutes and they proved their own imperfection. But we shall be perfect one day. “The one who began a good work in you will finish…

I have known a man begin to build his house, and he has spent a great deal of money upon it. At length, he has thought, “I do not quite like the situation.

God sometimes gives His people fresh promises by faith just before a trial is about to come upon them. It was so with Elijah. God said to him, “Go to the Wadi Kerith; I have commanded the crows to sustain you there” (1 Kings 17:4). This was at the beginning of the famine. There he stayed, and God fulfilled…

The law ceases its office as pedagogue when it comes to be written on our hearts. Boys have their lessons on slates, but men have their laws in their minds.

One reason God has a poor people is so that He may display more the power of His comforting promises and the supports of the gospel. “There,” says the architect, “this building is strong.” Yes, but it must be tested: Let the wind blow against it.
