Is It But Right That Our Hearts

A Holy And Heavenly Life Is A Continual Pain To The Consciences Of Sinners Around You And Continually Solicits Them To Change Their Course.

Our Very Business Is To Teach The Great Lesson Of Self-denial And Humility To Our People, And How Unfit Is It Then That We Should Be Proud Ourselves!

Such Is The Depth Of The Christian Scriptures, That Even If I Were Attempting To Study Them And Nothing Else From Early Boyhood To Decrepit Old Age, With The Utmost Leisure, The Most Unwearied Zeal, And Talents Greater Than I Have, I Would Be Still Daily Making Progress In Discovering Their Treasures.

Unity In Things Necessary, Liberty In Things Unnecessary, And Charity In All.

Of All The Preaching In The World, I Hate That Preaching Which Tends To Make The Hearers Laugh, Or To Move Their Minds With Tickling Levity And Affect Them As Stage Plays Used To, Instead Of Affecting Them With A Holy Reverence For The Name Of God.
