You May Know God, But

If A Man That Is Desperately Sick Today, Did Believe He Should Arise Sound The Next Morning; Or A Man Today, In Despicable Poverty, Had Assurance That He Should Tomorrow Arise A Prince: Would They Be Afraid To Go To Bed....?

When Christ Comes With Regenerating Grace, He Finds No Man Sitting Still, But All Posting To Eternal Ruin, And Making Haste Toward Hell; Till, By Conviction, He First Brings Them To A Stand, And Then, By Conversion, Turn First Their Hearts, And Then Their Lives, Sincerely To Himself.

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.

In My Library I Have Profitably And Pleasantly Dwelt Among The Shining Lights, With Which The Learned, Wise, And Holy Men Of All Ages Have Illuminated The World.

Special Mercy Arouses More Gratitude Than Universal Mercy.
