      The names mentioned in these verses are all, and utterly, unknown to fame.  They here glint across our vision, like meteors in the midnight sky, which appear for a moment, only to vanish for ever.  Yet Paul esteemed and loved them, and put their names upon this imperishable roll – more glorious and more lasting than the blazoned records of heraldry or the splendid memorials of the historian.

      It is better to be enrolled among the friends of Christ than to occupy the highest station in the regard of worldly minded men.  To be his when he makes up his jewels, this will be honour and happiness indeed.. …

      The strongest of all social bonds are those of our common Christianity, which, binding hearts to Christ, binds hearts to hearts.
