The love of Christ towards His people is a deep well which has no bottom. - John Charles Ryle

Assurance is more than life. It is health, strength, power, vigor, activity, energy, manliness, beauty.

All the simplicity in the world can do no good, unless you preach the simple Gospel of Jesus Christ so fully and clearly that everybody can understand it. If Christ crucified has not His rightful place in your sermons, and sin is not exposed as it should be, and your people are not plainly told what they ought to believe, and be, and do, your preaching is of no use.

We are all naturally self-righteous. It is the family-disease of all the children of Adam.
