More quotes by William Gurnall

William Gurnall
Let thy hope of heaven master thy fear of death.
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
Our enemies are on every side, so must our armour be.
William Gurnall
We live by faith, and faith lives by exercise.
William Gurnall
The grace thou hast will soon be less, if thou addest not more to it.
William Gurnall
Blind zeal is soon put to a shameful retreat, while holy resolution, built on fast principles, lifts up its head like a rock in the midst of the waves.
William Gurnall
For a beggar to live at court is not so much as the King to dwell with him in his cottage.
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
Pray often rather than very long at a time. It is hard to be very long in prayer, and not slacken in our affections.
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
Nothing is more contrary to a heavenly hope than an earthly heart.
William Gurnall
The storm may be tempestuous, but it is only temporary.
William Gurnall
The Christian is bred by the Word, and he must be fed by it.
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
Least doers are the greatest boasters.
William Gurnall
The soldier is summoned to a life of active duty and so is the Christian.
William Gurnall
Indeed all the saints are taught the same lesson - to renounce their own strength, and rely on the power of God their own policy, and cast themselves on the wisdom of God their own righteousness, and expect all from the pure mercy of God in Christ, which act of faith is so pleasing to God, that such a soul shall never be ashamed.
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.
