The Service Of Sin Is Perfect Slavery.

Prayer Is A Salve For Every Sore, A Remedy For Every Malady; And When We Are Afflicted With Thorns In The Flesh, We Should Give Ourselves To Prayer. If An Answer Be Not Given To The First Prayer, Nor To The Second, We Are To Continue Praying. Troubles Are Sent To Teach Us To Pray; And Are Continued, To Teach Us To Continue Instant In Prayer.

It Is Our Duty Not To Not Only Hold Fast, But To Hold Forth The Word Of Life; Not Only To Hold Fast For Our Own Benefit, But To Hold It Forth For The Benefit Of Others, To Hold It Forth As The Candlestick Holds Forth The Candle, Which Makes It Appear To Advantage All Around, Or As The Luminaries Of The Heavens, Which Shed Their Influences Far And Wide.

God Cannot Be Represented By An Image. We Ought Not To Think That The Godhead Is Like Unto Gold, Or Silver, Or Stone, Graven By Art And Man's Device. We Wrong God, And Put An Affront Upon Him, If We Think So. God Honoured Man In Making His Soul After His Own Likeness; But Man Dishonours God If He Makes Him After The Likeness Of His Body. The Godhead Is Spiritual, Infinite, Immaterial, Incomprehensible, And Therefore It Is A Very False And Unjust Conception Which An Image Gives Us Of God.

It Is Better To Get Wisdom Than Gold. Gold Is Another's, Wisdom Is Our Own; Gold Is For The Body And Time, Wisdom For The Soul And Eternity.

Tears Are A Tribute To Our Deceased Friends. When The Body Is Sown, It Must Be Watered. But We Must Not Sorrow As Those That Have No Hope; For We Have A Good Hope Through Grace Both Concerning Them And Concerning Ourselves.
