More quotes by William Gurnall
It is no policy to let thy lusts have arms, which are sure to rise and declare against thee when thine enemy comes.
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
Mercy should make us ashamed, wrath afraid to sin.
William Gurnall
It is the saint's duty, and should be their care, not only to believe that God is Almighty, but also to strongly believe that His almighty power is engaged for our defense and help in all of our straits and temptations.
William Gurnall
To forsake sin, is to leave it without any thought reserved of returning to it again.
William Gurnall
CEASE to PRAY and thou will BEGIN to SIN.
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
Paul was Nero's prisoner, but Nero was much more God's.
William Gurnall
Few are made better by prosperity, whom afflictions make worse.
William Gurnall
Christ bears with the saints' imperfections well may the saints one with another.
William Gurnall
Nothing is more contrary to a heavenly hope than an earthly heart.
William Gurnall
God is almighty to pardon, but He will not use His power for a shameless sinner. He is able to save and help in time of need, but if you have not repented, how can you expect His aid? The same power God expends on the believer's salvation will be spent on your damnation, for He has bound Himself under oath to destroy every impenitent soul.
William Gurnall
It is the image of God reflected in you that so enrages hell it is this at which the demons hurl their mightiest weapons.
William Gurnall
If thou beest ever so exact in thy morals, and not a worshiper of God, then thou art an atheist.
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
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
Justifying faith is not a naked assent to the truths of the gospel.
William Gurnall
One Almighty is more than all mighties
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
Set a strong guard about thy outward senses: these are Satan's landing places, especially the eye and the ear.
