Preach To Yourselves The Sermons Which You

A Holy And Heavenly Life Is A Continual Pain To The Consciences Of Sinners Around You And Continually Solicits Them To Change Their Course.

Do Not Waste Your Time On Light, Weak, Milk­toast Ministries And Books

In Our First Paradise In Eden There Was A Way To Go Out But No Way To Go In Again. But As For The Heavenly Paradise, There Is A Way To Go In, But Not Way To Go Out.

When We Speak To Drunkards, Worldlings, Or Any Ignorant, Unconverted Men, We Disgrace Them As In That Condition To The Utmost, And Lay It On As Plainly As We Can Speak, And Tell Them Of Their Sin, And Shame, And Misery: And We Expect, Not Only That They Should Bear All Patiently, But Take All Thankfully, And We Have Good Reasons For All This; And Most That I Deal With Do Take It Patiently... But If We Speak To A Godly Minister Against His Errors Or Any Sin... If It Be Not More An Applause Than A Reprehension, They Take It As An Injury Almost Insufferable.

My Lord, I Have Nothing To Do In This World, But To Seek And Serve Thee; I Have Nothing To Do With A Heart And Its Affections, But To Breathe After Thee. I Have Nothing To Do With My Tongue And Pen, But To Speak To Thee, And For Thee, And To Publish Thy Glory And Thy Will. What Have I To Do With All My Reputation, And Interest In My Friends, But To Increase Thy Church, And Propagate Thy Holy Truth And Service? What Have I To Do With My Remaining Time, Even These Last And Languishing Hours, But To Look Up Unto Thee, And Wait For Thy Grace, And Thy Salvation?
