Charles G. Finney : Christ the Husband of the Church

Charles G. Finney : Can Two Walk Together Except They Be Agreed

Charles G. Finney : Breaking Up the Fallow Ground
The Jews were a nation of farmers, and it is therefore a common thing in the scriptures to refer for Illustrations to their occupation, and to the scenes with which farmers and shepherds are familiar.

Charles G. Finney : Bound to Know Your True Character
It requires that we should understand our own hearts, that we should take the proper steps to make proof of our real characters, as they appear in the sight of God.

Charles G. Finney : Any One Form of Sin Persisted In is Fatal

C.H. Spurgeon : Accidents, Not Punishments
THE YEAR 1861 will have a notoriety among its fellows as the year of calamities. Just at that season when man goeth forth to reap the fruit of his labors, when the harvest of the earth is ripe, and the barns are beginning to burst with the new wheat, Death too, the mighty reaper...
