If we are doubting Christians, we shall be wavering Christians. Whence is apostacy, but from incredulity? Men first question the truth, and then fall from the truth. -Thomas Watson

Two Troubles
There are two things which I have always looked upon as difficult. The one is, to make the wicked sad; the other is, to make the godly joyful. – Thomas Watson
The Root of Grace
A gracious heart looks upon every promise as coming from the root of the great Covenant, of grace in Christ. Other men look upon some particular promises, that God will help them in straits, and keep them and the like, but they do not look at the connection of such particular promises to the root, the Covenant of grace. Christians miss a great deal of comfort which they might have from the particular promises in the gospel, if they would consider their connection to the root, the great Covenant that God has made with them in Christ. -Jeremiah Burroughs
Wakeup Call
I love those who thunder out the Word. The Christian world is in a deep sleep! Nothing but a loud voice can awaken them out of it. -George Whitefield
Mercy Multiplies
God is more willing to pardon than to punish. Mercy does more multiplying in Him than sin in us. Mercy is His nature. -Thomas Watson
Clean Hearts
And therefore Christians, whatever you have of the world in your hands, be it more or less, as you value the peace as well as the purity of your souls, keep it out of your hearts. -Matthew Henry
