Every time we look upon our congregations, let us believingly remember that they are the purchase of Christ’s blood, and therefore should be regarded by us with the deepest interest and the most tender affection.

Study Hard
Richard Baxter’s wise words to every pastor:
Study hard, for the well is deep, and our brains are shallow.
Pastor, Preach Every Sermon As If It Were Your Last
I preached as never sure to preach again and as a dying man to dying men.
Compensation for All Loss
Heaven will pay for any loss we may suffer to gain it; but nothing can pay for the loss of heaven.
