Resolved, Never To Suffer The Least Motions

When I Am Giving The Relation Of A Thing, Remember To Abstain From Altering Either In The Matter Or Manner Of Speaking, So Much, As That, If Every One, Afterwards, Should Alter As Much, It Would At Last Come To Be Properly False.

He Who Has Christ Has All He Needs And Needs No More.

What Self-righteous Persons Take To Themselves, Is The Same Work That Christ Was Engaged In When He Was In His Agony And Bloody Sweat, And When He Died On The Cross, Which Was The Greatest Thing That Ever The Eyes Of Angels Beheld. Christ Could Accomplish Other Parts Of This Work Without Cost; But This Part Cost Him His Life, As Well As Innumerable Pains And Labors. Yet This Is The Part Which Self-righteous Persons Go About To Accomplish For Themselves.

If There Be Ground For You To Trust, As You Do, In Your Own Righteousness, Then All That Christ Did To Purchase Salvation, And All That God Did From The Fall Of Man To Prepare The Way For It, Is In Vain. Consider What Greater Folly Could You Have Devised To Charge Upon God Than This, That All Those Things Were Done So Needlessly; When, Instead Of All This, He Might Only Have Called You Forth, And Committed The Business To You, Which You Think You Can Do So Easily.

The Beauty Of The World Consists Wholly Of Sweet Mutual Consents, Either Within Itself Or With The Supreme Being.
