More quotes by William Gurnall
Pride of gifts robs us of God's blessing in the use of them.
William Gurnall
God Himself underwrites your battle and has appointed His own Son 'the captain of your salvation'.
William Gurnall
We are justified, not by giving anything to God,--what we do,--but by receiving from God, what Christ hath done for us.
William Gurnall
God loves the saints as the purchase of his Son's blood. They cost him dear, and that which is so hardly got shall not be easily lost. He that was willing to expend his Son's blood to gain them, will not deny his power to keep them.
William Gurnall
Our enemies are on every side, so must our armour be.
William Gurnall
God would not rub so hard if it were not to fetch out the dirt that is ingrained in our natures. God loves purity so well He had rather see a hole than a spot in His child's garments.
William Gurnall
Weak faith will as surely land the Christian in heaven as strong faith, for it is impossible the least dram of true grace should perish
William Gurnall
Say not that thou hast royal blood in thy veins say not that thou art born of God if thou canst not prove thy pedigree by daring to be holy!
William Gurnall
It is not only our duty to pray for others, but also to desire the prayers of others for ourselves.
William Gurnall
Christ will bear no equal, and Satan no superior and therefore, hold in with both thou canst not.
William Gurnall
Least doers are the greatest boasters.
William Gurnall
Never venture near the door where sin dwells, lest you are dragged in.
William Gurnall
How can God stoop lower than to come and dwell with a poor humble soul? Which is more than if he had said, such a one should dwell with him for a beggar to live at court is not so much as the king to dwell with him in his cottage.
William Gurnall
How many, alas, of the precious saints of God must we shut out from being believers, if there is no faith but what amounts to assurance.... shall we say their faith went away in the departure of their assurance?
William Gurnall
The longer a soul hath neglected duty, the more ado there is to get it taken up.
William Gurnall
Humble souls are fearful of their own strength.
William Gurnall
Peace of conscience is nothing but the echo of pardoning mercy.
William Gurnall
Prayer is nothing but the promise reversed, or God's Word formed into an argument, and retorted by faith upon God again.
William Gurnall
Whoever hath a seed time of grace pass over his soul, shall have his harvest time also of joy.
William Gurnall
Mercy should make us ashamed, wrath afraid to sin.
