William Gurnall
Paul was Nero's prisoner, but Nero was much more God's.
William Gurnall

William Gurnall
Few are made better by prosperity, whom afflictions make worse.
William Gurnall
It is not only our duty to pray for others, but also to desire the prayers of others for ourselves.

William Gurnall
In heaven we shall appear, not in armour, but in robes of glory. But here these are to be worn night and day we must walk, work, and sleep in them, or else we are not true soldiers of Christ.
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
As you love your peace, Christian, be plain-hearted with God and man, and keep the king's highway.
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
The mightier any is in the word, the more mighty he will be in prayer.
William Gurnall
Satan will be ready to help forward such thoughts as a fit medium to lift thee up , and slacken thy care in duty for the future. Such discoveries do indeed bear witness to the truth of thy grace, but not to the degree and measure of it. The weak child may be, yea, is, oftener in the lap than the strong.
William Gurnall
The sins of teachers are the teachers of sin.
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
Thou hast no life to lose, because thou hast given it already to Christ, nor can man take away that without God's leave.
William Gurnall
Humble souls are fearful of their own strength.
William Gurnall
The Word of God is too sacred a thing, and preaching too solemn a work, to be toyed and played with.
