Originál: (en) God never saved any man for being a preacher, nor because he was an able preacher; but because he was a justified, sanctified man, and consequently faithful in his Master’s work. Take heed, therefore, to yourselves first, that you be that which you persuade your hearers to be, and believe that which you persuade them to believe, and heartily entertain that Savior whom you offer to them.

„Na prvním místě je posvěcení duše a všechno ostatní je až druhořadé.“
Originál: (en) It is a poor sermon that gives no offense; that neither makes the hearer displeased with himself nor with the preacher.

Originál: (en) As God can send a nation or people no greater blessing than to give them faithful, sincere and upright ministers, so the greatest curse that God can possibly send upon a people in this world is to give them over to blind, unregenerate, carnal, lukewarm and unskilled guides.
