Our forefathers died for half a truth, and we will not bear rebuke for a whole one. Two women were tied to the stake at Wigton and drowned in the rising tide—do you know what for? Simply because they would not say, “God save the king.” You say, “What does that matter?” Well, it was comparatively a theological…

You might be the possessor of a large estate, and an adversary might contest your right to it, and you might not be able to find your title deeds.

When they bring out a new book to disprove Genesis, and another to evaporate the atonement, do not be afraid. As long as the gospel is in the world the devil will find somebody to write books against it. Take no notice of them; they cannot stand against facts. A philosopher once wrote a book to prove…

SHARING YOUR FAITH IS NOT HARD Typically, a person wants to tell everyone about a gift he or she received. Yet many people treat salvation like it's some kind of secret.

You know how a judge will stop a witness when he begins to say what others have told him: “No, no,” he says, “what did you see yourself? What do you know about this business on your own account? I do not want to know what others said to you about it.” So is it with the message delivered from the pulpit.…

A person talks to me about a certain medicine, how it is compounded, what it looks like, how many drops must be taken at a dose, and so on. Well, I do not care to hear all that, and I soon forget it. But he tells me that for many months he was bedridden, he was in sore distress and in great pain, and…

Just as we sometimes see a strong and healthy person growing pale and wan, losing appetite and falling into sickness until he becomes a mere skeleton because a general sapping and undermining of the constitution has come upon him, so have I seen it with Christians.

In olden times, when men bought estates, it was customary for the seller to give to the purchaser a tuft of grass and a leaf from one of the trees on the land, signifying that the purchaser then had what was called seizin of the property.

New evidence is sometimes brought into court that completely changes the aspect of the case.

Many years ago a certain prince visited the Spanish galleys, where a large number of convicts were confined, chained to their oars to toil on without relief—I think nearly all of them condemned to a life sentence.
