Embrace every opportunity of exercising kind feelings and doing good to others, especially to the household of faith. ”

If we are interested in Christ by faith, notwithstanding our imperfections and sins, God will be our God through grace. ”

Observe the seven seasons of secret prayer every day. ”

We had never before seen a place where European influence had not contributed to smooth and soften the rough features of uncultivated nature. The prospect of Rangoon, as we approached, was quite disheartening. ”

If this system were universally adopted, it would banish believers' baptism out of the world. ”
