When a prophet is accepted and deified, his message is lost. The prophet is only useful so long as he is stoned as a public nuisance calling us to repentance, disturbing our comfortable routines, breaking our respectable idols, shattering our sacred conventions.

There are some rare Christians who seem born for thoughtfulness. … This is the highest and holiest ministry of love. It is not softness nor weakness; it is strength – but strength enriched by divine gentleness.

The supreme and crying need of this lost world is the Gospel. Shall we not rise at Christ’s command to carry the blessed saving news to every perishing one?

Rivers to the ocean run,
Nor stay in all their course;
Fire ascending seeks the sun,
Both speed them to their source:
So a soul that’s born of God,
Pants to view his glorious face;
Upward tends to his abode,
To rest in his embrace.

A Christian should always have one eye upon his end, and the other eye upon his way. That man lives a brutish life, who knows not what he lives for. And that man acts a fool’s part, who aims at heaven, and lives at random. The end for which a wise Christian lives is, that he may live without end; and therefore his way of living is, that he may live to spend his life continually in the ways of life. He is always walking in those paths in which he can see heaven before him. O my soul, what dost thou aim at? Is it a full enjoyment of thy God? Why then, whilst thou art present in the body, be always drawing near unto the Lord: so when thou shalt be absent from the body, thou shalt be always present with the Lord.

Is it too much to expect our God to do ‘exceedingly abundantly above?’ Can we put a strain on Omnipotence; can we exhaust infinite Love?
