  1. All the virtues which appeared in Christ shone brightest in the close of His life, under the trials He then met. Eminent virtue always shows brightest in the fire.

  2. A greater absurdity cannot be thought of than a morose, hard-hearted, covetous, proud, malicious Christian.

    1895, p. 106., Own words

  3. All the graces of Christianity always go together. They so go together that where there is one, there are all, and where one is wanting, all are wanting.

    1895, p. 119., Own words
