Surely Love Is Both Work And Wages.

I Like To Hear A Man Dwell Much On The Same Essentials Of Christianity. For We Have But One God, And One Christ, And One Faith To Preach; And I Will Not Preach Another Gospel To Please Men With Variety, As If Our Saviour And Our Gospel Had Grown Stale.

It Is True, That Men May Have Christ Whenever They Are Willing To Comply With His Terms. But If You Are Not Willing Now, How Can You Think You Shall Be Willing Hereafter?

I Remember Myself, That When I Was Young, I Had Sometime The Company Of One Ancient Godly Minister, Who Was Of Weaker Parts Than Many Others, But Yet Did Profit Me More Than Most; Because He Would Never In Prayer Or Conference Speak Of God, Or The Life To Come, But With Such Marvelous Seriousness And Reverence, As If He Had Seen The Majesty And Glory Which He Talked Of.

Lay Siege To Your Sins, And Starve Them Out By Keeping Away The Food And Fuel Which Is Their Maintenance And Life.

Keep Up Your Conjugal Love In A Constant Heat And Vigor. Love Will Suppress Wrath: You Cannot Have A Bitter Mind Upon Small Provocations, Against Those That You Dearly Love.
