More quotes by William Gurnall
Mercy should make us ashamed, wrath afraid to sin.
William Gurnall
We need not borrow and take up sorrows upon use of the morrow, to make up our present load as we read of daily bread, so of a daily cross, Luke ix. M, which we are bid to take, not to make.
William Gurnall
One Almighty is more than all mighties
William Gurnall

He that loves the Word and the purity of its precepts cannot turn traitor.
William Gurnall
A minister, without boldness, is like a smooth file, a knife without an edge, a sentinel that is afraid to let off his gun. If men will be bold in sin, ministers must be bold to reprove.
William Gurnall
The devil had as good have let Paul alone, for he no sooner comes into prison but he falls a preaching, at which the gates of Satan's prison fly open, and poor sinners come forth.
William Gurnall
The storm may be tempestuous, but it is only temporary.
William Gurnall

William Gurnall
The longer a soul hath neglected duty, the more ado there is to get it taken up.
William Gurnall
God's wounds cure, sin's kisses kill.
William Gurnall
We have peace with God as soon as we believe, but not always with ourselves. The pardon may be past the prince's hand and seal, and yet not put into the prisoner's hand.
William Gurnall
Christ bears with the saints' imperfections well may the saints one with another.
William Gurnall
Job's friends chose the right time to visit him, but took not the right course of improving their visit had they spent the time in praying for him which they did in hot disputes with him, they would have profited him, and pleased God more.
William Gurnall
Compare Scripture with Scripture. False doctrines, like false witnesses, agree not among themselves.
William Gurnall
Few are made better by prosperity, whom afflictions make worse.
William Gurnall
The Christian must trust in a withdrawing God.
