Pastor, you can’t say everything in one sermon.

"There is such a thing as having too much to say, and saying it until hearers are sent home loathing rather than longing."

Pastor, warning sinners is always loving.

"The minister of God, when he is dealing with men’s souls, must speak very plainly."

Pastor, never be tempted to preach false doctrine

"I want none of your popularity. I will preach to you, as long as this tongue moves in my head, God’s truth, whether it offend or please."

Pastor, lead like Martin Luther

Happy Reformation Day: "Luther knew that he must defy antichrist, and declare the pure gospel of the blessed God; and he must stand alone for the truth."

Pastors, give meaty, solid sermons

"Brethren, if you are not theologians you are in your pastorates just nothing at all."

Pastor, be content to know Christ (when the world hates you)

"You are of no use in the ministry, my dear brother, if you are not quite willing to be called a fool, to be called a thief, or even to be called a devil! You will never be successful if you are afraid of being pelted."

Pastor, you must be godly (your gifts are not enough)

"For the herald of the gospel to be spiritually out of order in his own proper person is, both to himself and to his work, a most serious calamity."

Pastor, your people don’t need a new message.

"Some would have us tone down the everlasting truth that shall outlive the sun, and moon, and stars, to suit your boasted culture."

Pastor, if you want people to come to Christ, then preach like it!

"I am struck with astonishment as I think how many sermons are preached of which you are quite sure that the intention was NOT immediate conversion."

Pastor, you are your brother's keeper

"You cannot enter the Christian ministry without standing where you will want almighty grace to keep you clear of the blood of souls."

Pastor, do not forget to rejoice in the Lord always

Pastor, you will never run out of sermons.
