Now I saw that behind the multitude there stood a chariot and a team of horses waiting for Faithful, who as soon as his adversaries had taken his life was taken up into it and immediately carried up through the clouds with the sound of a trumpet.  He was taken by the nearest way to the Celestial gate.  (127)

"old men who are gracious are best able to give advice to them who are young because they've seen most of teh emptiness of things."  (345)

One individual, seeing how the men conducted themselves, mockingly risked to say to them, "What do you intend to buy?"

"One leak will sink a ship, and one sin will destroy a sinner."  (262)

" 'One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.'  'One man pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.' "  (343)

"Remember the sayings, 'They do not practice what they preach,' and 'For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power.'  He talks about prayer, repentance, faith, and the New Birth, but he only knows how to talk about them." (103)

" (96)

"...suffer and put up with wrongs without murmurings and complaints."  (260)

..."the lack of this is the reason so few understand the need of faith and the necessity of a work of grace in their soul in order to obtain eternal life." (101)
