More quotes by William Gurnall
The chains of love are stronger than the chains of fear.
William Gurnall
The Christian in prayer comes up close to God, with a humble boldness of faith, and takes hold of him, wrestles with him yea, will not let him go without a blessing... They are only a few noble-spirited souls, who dare take heaven by force, that are fit for this calling.
William Gurnall
The mightier any is in the word, the more mighty he will be in prayer.
William Gurnall
He that loves the Word and the purity of its precepts cannot turn traitor.
William Gurnall

CEASE to PRAY and thou will BEGIN to SIN.
William Gurnall

William Gurnall
Let thy hope of heaven master thy fear of death.
William Gurnall
The storm may be tempestuous, but it is only temporary.
William Gurnall

William Gurnall
We must not confide in the armour of God, but in the God of this armour, because all our weapons are only mighty through God.
William Gurnall
Godliness is the child of truth, and it must be nursed by its own mother.
William Gurnall
Few are made better by prosperity, whom afflictions make worse.
William Gurnall
Christ will bear no equal, and Satan no superior and therefore, hold in with both thou canst not.
William Gurnall
He that is impatient, and cannot wait on God for a mercy, will not easily submit to Him in a denial.
William Gurnall
Of all creatures in this visible world, light is the most glorious of all light, the light of the sun without compare excels the rest.
William Gurnall
The Christian's life should put his minister's sermon in print.
