Than Go Down to Hell in a Golden Chariot

— I would rather go into the kingdom of heaven through the poor house than go down to hell in a golden chariot.

— I believe there are more young men who come to Boston who are lost because they cannot say no, than for any other reason.

— It ain’t necessary to leave the things of this life when you follow Him. It is not necessary to give up your business, if it’s a legitimate one, in order to accept Christ. But you mustn’t set your heart on the old nets by a good deal.

— A great many people want to bring their faith, their works, their good deeds to Him for salvation. Bring your sins, and He will bear them away into the wilderness of forgetfulness, and you will never see them again.

— Do you believe that He would send those men out to preach the gospel to every creature unless he wanted every creature to be saved? Do you believe He would tell them to preach it to people without giving people the power to accept it? Do you believe the God of heaven is mocking men by offering them his gospel and not giving them the power to take hold of it? Do you believe He will not give men power to accept this salvation as a gift? Man might do that, but God never mocks men. And when he says “Preach the gospel to every creature,” every creature can be saved if he will.

— Lift your eyes from off these puny Christians—from off these human ministers, and look to Christ. He is the Saviour of the world. He came from the throne to this earth: He came from the very bosom of the Father. God gave Him up freely for us, and all we have to do is to accept him as our Saviour. Look at Him at Gethsemane, sweating as it were great drops of blood; look at Him on the cross, crucified between two thieves; hear that piercing cry, “Father, Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.” And as you look into that face, as you look into those wounds on His feet or His hands, will you say He has not the power to save you? Will you say He has not the power to redeem you?
