Obedience Is The Crown And Honour Of

He Who Loses Sight Of The Word Of God, Falls Into Despair; The Voice Of Heaven No Longer Sustains Him; He Follows Only The Disorderly Tendency Of His Heart.

Next To The Word Of God, The Noble Art Of Music Is The Greatest Treasure In The World.

The Faith Towards God In Christ Must Be Sure And Steadfast, That It May Solace And Make Glad The Conscience, And Put It To Rest. When A Man Has This Certainty, He Has Overcome The Serpent; But If He Be Doubtful Of The Doctrine, It Is For Him Very Dangerous To Dispute With The Devil.

So Tenaciously Should We Cling To The World Revealed By The Gospel, That Were I To See All The Angels Of Heaven Coming Down To Me To Tell Me Something Different, Not Only Would I Not Be Tempted To Doubt A Single Syllable, But I Would Shut My Eyes And Stop My Ears, For They Would Not Deserve To Be Either Seen Or Heard.

As Long As A Man Is Persuaded That He Can Make Even The Smallest Contribution To His Salvation, He Remains Self-confident And Does Not Utterly Despair Of Himself, And So Is Not Humbled Before God. Such A Man Plans Out For Himself A Position, An Occasion, A Work, Which Shall Bring Him Final Salvation, But Which Will Not.
