Sivu 349 - Two things have I required of thee ; deny me them not before I die: remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, "Who is the Lord?" or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.
Sivu 358 - It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart.
Sivu 130 - Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need
Sivu 10 - He who every morning plans the transactions of the day, and follows out that plan, carries on a thread which will guide him through the labyrinth of the most busy life.

Sivu 304 - Jhall be judged: and with what meafure ye mete, it Jhall be meafured to you again. And why beholdeft thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye...
Sivu 321 - Those evil spirits who inhabit the regions of misery, are represented as delighting in revenge and cruelty. But all that is great and good in the universe, is on the side of clemency and mercy. The Almighty Ruler of the world, though for ages offended by the unrighteousness, and insulted by the impiety of men, is long-suffering and slow to anger.
Sivu 437 - ... ruler ; what construction he is to put on many of the dispensations of his providence ; and what his fate is to be when he departs hence. What a...
Sivu 322 - Collected within itself, it stands unmoved by their impotent assaults ; and with generous pity, rather than with anger, looks down on their unworthy conduct.
