When men seek self they find sin.
The visionary see no real visions.
More consciences are allowed to rust
out than TO wear out.
The scattering Of the Word is the
salvation of the world.
Distinctions of character do not rest
OH differences f circumstance.
If the sun should seem to be hidden
you still have the lantern of the Word.
1t is one thing to know the Bible
by memory and another to know it by
heart
A man has to take Il good many
tumbles before his pride is entirely
broken.
