"...too much leniency emboldens sin..."

“Repentance is a grace of God's Spirit whereby a sinner is inwardly humbled and visibly reformed.”

“Seriousness is the Christian's ballast which keeps him from being overturned with vanity.”

“O that we would therefore, while we are on this side of the grave, make our peace with God! Tomorrow may be our dying day; let this be our repenting day.”

“Truth is unerring; it is the star which leads to Christ. Truth is pure”

“Obedience carries in it the life-blood of religion.”

“Truth has noble effects. Truth is the seed of the new birth. God does not regenerate us by miracles or revelations, but by the word of truth . As truth is the breeder of grace, so it is the feeder of it . Truth sanctifies: "Sanctify them through Thy truth" .”
