All the plots of hell and commotions on earth have not so much as shaken God's hand to spoil one letter or line he has been drawing.

Of all creatures in this visible world, light is the most glorious; of all light, the light of the sun without compare excels the rest.
William Gurnall
-
Christ bears with the saints' imperfections; well may the saints one with another.
William Gurnall
-
And therefore you who think so basely of the gospel and the professors of it, because at present their peace and comfort is not come, know it is on the way to them, and comes to stay everlastingly with them; whereas your peace is going from you every moment, and is sure to leave you without any hope of returning to you again. Look not how the Christian begins, but ends. The Spirit of God by his convictions comes into the soul with some terrors, but it closeth with peace and joy.
William Gurnall
-
Let thy hope of heaven master thy fear of death.

Justifying faith is not a naked assent to the truths of the gospel.

Satan will be ready to help forward such thoughts as a fit medium to lift thee up , and slacken thy care in duty for the future. Such discoveries do indeed bear witness to the truth of thy grace, but not to the degree and measure of it. The weak child may be, yea, is, oftener in the lap than the strong.
William Gurnall

One Almighty is more than all mighties

God hath made it a debt which one saint owes to another to carry their names to a throne of grace.
William Gurnall
-
The Christian is bred by the Word, and he must be fed by it.
William Gurnall
-
Prayer is nothing but the promise reversed, or God's Word formed into an argument, and retorted by faith upon God again.
