Twenty-Five Discourses
What is Christianity?

— Thomas Brooks (1608–1680)

A Christian minister is a person who in a peculiar sense is not his own. He is the servant of God, and therefore ought to be wholly devoted to Him.
— William Carey (1761–1834)
Weak Christians
The weak Christian is willing to live and patient to die; but the strong, patient to live and willing to die.
— John Boys (1571–1625)
