Originál: (en) Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God; and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works; and he that is without works is without faith.

Originál: (en) A faith which works not for purification will work for putrefaction. Unless our faith makes us pine after holiness, it is no better than the faith of devils, and perhaps it is not even so good as that.

Originál: (en) Faith is not a blind thing; for faith begins with knowledge. It is not a speculative thing; for faith believes facts of which it is sure. It is not an unpractical, dreamy thing; for faith trusts, and stakes its destiny upon the truth of revelation.

„Malá víra obdrží veliká milosrdenství, ale veliká víra ještě větší.“
Originál: (en) Little faith gets very great mercies, but great faith still greater.

„Dbejte o zrnko víry více, než o mnoho vzrušení.“
Originál: (en) Care more for a grain of faith than a ton of excitement.

Originál: (en) True belief and true repentance are twins: it would be idle to attempt to say which is born first. All the spokes of a wheel move at once when the wheel moves, and so all the graces commence action when regeneration is wrought by the Holy Ghost.

Originál: (en) Repentance grows as faith grows. Do not make any mistake about it; repentance is not a thing of days and weeks. (…) No; it is the grace of a lifetime, like faith itself.

Originál: (en) Repentance and faith are distasteful to the unregenerate; they would sooner repeat a thousand formal prayers than shed a solitary tear of true repentance.

Originál: (en) I have noticed that whenever a person gives up his belief in the Word of God because it requires that he should believe a good deal, his unbelief requires him to believe a great deal more. If there be any difficulties in the faith of Christ, they are not one-tenth as great as the absurdities in any system of unbelief which seeks to take its place.

„Nevíra je matka neřesti; je to matka hříchu; a je tedy, pravím, zlo jako mor – vůdčí hřích.“
Originál: (en) Unbelief is the mother of vice; it is the parent of sin; and, therefore, I say it is a pestilent evil - a master sin.
