עמוד 187 - O the depth of the riches of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God ! How incomprehensible are his judgments, and how unsearchable his ways!
עמוד 257 - Martha, Martha, thou art careful, and art troubled about many things; but, one thing is necessary; Mary hath chosen the best part, which shall not be taken away from her.
עמוד 377 - God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, by honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; as sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
עמוד 78 - And he is the head of the body, the church : who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
עמוד 128 - He that hurteth, let him hurt still: and he that is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is just, let him be justified still: and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still.
עמוד 314 - Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.

עמוד 92 - God did not deprive thee of the operation of His love, but thou didst deprive His love of thy co-operation. God would never have rejected thee if thou hadst not rejected His love. O all-good God! Thou dost not forsake unless forsaken, Thou never takest away Thy gifts till we take away our hearts.
