“A man ought to live so that everybody will know he is a Christian.”

“Every man ought to take down some of the preacher’s words and ideas, and go into some lane or by-way, and preach them again to others. We ought to have four ears—two for ourselves and two for other people.”

“A worldly Christian is just like a wrecked vessel at sea.”

“I never saw a fruit-bearing Christian who was not a student of the Bible.”

“May God deliver us from the one-sided Christian who reads only the New Testament and talks against the Old!”

“Do you know what I do when any man preaches against the doctrines I preach? I go to the Bible and find out what it says, and if I am right I give them more of the same kind.”

“What we need as Christians is to be able to feed ourselves. How many there are who sit helpless and listless, with open mouths, hungry for spiritual things, and the minister has to try to feed them, while the Bible is a feast prepared, into which they never venture.”
