William Gurnall Quote: “Can Christ be in thou heart and thou not know it? Can one king be dethroned and another crowned in thy soul and thou hear no scuffle?”
William Gurnall Quote: “A pilot without his chart, a scholar without his book, and a soldier without his sword, are alike ridiculous. But, above all these, it is absurd for one to think of being a Christian, without knowledge of the word of God and some skill to use this weapon. – William Gurnall, The Christian in Complete Armour.”
William Gurnall Quote: “What have we Bibles for, ministers and preaching for, if we mean not to furnish ourselves by them with armour for the evil day? In.”

William Gurnall Quote: “Few are made better by prosperity, whom afflictions make worse.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Oh, it is sad for a poor Christian to stand at the door of the promise, in the dark night of affliction, afraid to draw the latch, whereas he should then come boldly for shelter as a child into his father’s house.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Jerusalem above is a city whose builder and maker is God.” Every grace, yea, every degree of grace, is a stone in that building, the topstone whereof is laid in glory, where saints shall more plainly see, how God was not only Founder to begin, but Benefactor also to finish the same. The glory of the work shall not be crumbled and piece-mealed out, some to God and some to the creature, but all entirely paid in to God, and he acknowledged all in all.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Pray often rather than very long at a time. It is hard to be very long in prayer, and not slacken in our affections.”

William Gurnall Quote: “Paul was Nero’s prisoner, but Nero was much more God’s.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Praying is the same to the new creature as crying is to the natural. The child is not learned by art or example to cry, but instructed by nature; it comes into the world crying. Praying is not a lesson got by forms and rules of art, but flowing from principles of new life itself.”
William Gurnall Quote: “The mightier any is in the word, the more mighty he will be in prayer.”

William Gurnall Quote: “Christian, hath not God secretly instructed thee by his Spirit from the Word, how to read the shorthand of his providence? Dost.”
William Gurnall Quote: “God loves the saints as the purchase of his Son’s blood. They cost him dear, and that which is so hardly got shall not be easily lost. He that was willing to expend his Son’s blood to gain them, will not deny his power to keep them.”
William Gurnall Quote: “The Christian must stand fixed to his principles, and not change his habit; but freely show what countryman he is by his holy constancy in the truth.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Many lose heaven because they are ashamed to go in a fool’s coat thither.”
William Gurnall Quote: “No torment in the world is comparable to an accusing conscience.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Therefore tremble, O man, at any power thou hast, except thou usest it for God. Art thou strong in body; who hath thy strength? God, or thy lusts?”

William Gurnall Quote: “Christ hath told us He will come, but not when, that we might never put off our clothes, or put out the candle.”
William Gurnall Quote: “The longer a soul hath neglected duty, the more ado there is to get it taken up.”
William Gurnall Quote: “As the eye of the body once put out, can never be restored by the creature’s art, so neither can the spiritual eye lost by Adam’s sin be restored by the teaching of men or angels. It is one of the diseases which Christ came to cure.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Prayer is a great heart-easer; it breathes out those distempered passions which, being bound up in others, break out when God at any time crosseth them in their wills.”
William Gurnall Quote: “They say stars have greatest influences when they are in conjunction with the sun; then sure the graces of a saint should never work more powerfully than in prayer, for then he is in the nearest conjunction and communion with God. That.”
William Gurnall Quote: “It is one thing to know a truth, and another thing to know it by unction.”

William Gurnall Quote: “We have peace with God as soon as we believe, but not always with ourselves. The pardon may be past the prince’s hand and seal, and yet not put into the prisoner’s hand.”
William Gurnall Quote: “The news which the gospel hath in its mouth to tell us poor sinners is good. It speaks promises, and they are significations of some good intended by God for poor sinners.”
William Gurnall Quote: “Great comforts do, indeed, bear witness to the truth of thy grace, but not to the degree of it; the weak child is oftener in the lap than the strong one.”
