His talent, as a preacher, being rather of the reasoning and discriminating character, the almost uniform first report was, that he was not eloquent. So in the usual acceptation of the word, perhaps he was not. But if eloquence consists in the power of holding attention, and deeply impressing human minds, then was Mr. Nettleton eloquent, and at times, beyond almost any man we have ever known.

24:13Counsel to the Afflicted: or, Instruction and Consolation for such as have Suffered Loss by Fire: With Advice to such as have Escaped that Sore Judgment: Occasioned by the Dreadful Fire in the City of London, in the Year 1666." By Puritan Owen Stockton 1630-1680. The Fire began in London, Sept. 2, 1666, and continued raging for the space of three or four days together with that fury and violence that none was able to quench it, until it had consumed the greatest part of that renowned City. Text is available in PDF, .epub, and .mobi formats from Monergism. Thanks to David Jonescue.…

34:00"We may observe, (1) When God expresseS great indignation in Himself against sin, it is to teach men the greatness of sin in themselves. (2) God gives the same stability unto His threatenings as unto His promises. Men are apt to think the promises are firm and stable, but as for the threatenings, they suppose some way or other they may be evaded. (3) When men have provoked God by their impenitency to decree their punishment irrevocably, they will find severity in the execution. (4) It is the presence of God alone that renders any place or condition good or desirable, 'they' shall not enter into My rest" (Dr. John Owen).…
Our liberty is founded on Christ Himself, who sits at the right hand of God and intercedes for us. Therefore our liberty is sure and valid as long as we believe in Christ. As long as we cling to Him with a steadfast faith we possess His priceless gifts. But if we are careless and indifferent we shall lose them. It is not without good reason that Paul urges us to watch and to stand fast. He knew that the devil delights in taking this liberty away from us.…

58:02Seeing therefore it is so evident, that you refuse to accept of Christ as your Saviour, why is Christ to be blamed that he does not save you? Christ has offered himself to you to be your Saviour in time past, and he continues offering himself still, and you continue to reject him, and yet complain that he does not save you. — So strangely unreasonable, and inconsistent with themselves, are gospel sinners!…

36:36The solemn manner in which this was related, produced an overwhelming effect. There was not a dry eye in the house; and I doubt whether there was one present, not already a believer, who did not resolve from that time to seek an interest in Christ. Certain it is that many dated their first serious impressions from that evening.…

23:28This wonderful psalm, from its great length, helps us to marvel at the immensity of Scripture. As it keeps to the same subject, it helps us adore the unity of Scripture. Yet, from the many turns it brings to that one subject, it helps us see the variety of Scripture. How manifold are the words and thoughts of God! In His Word, just as in creation, the wonders of His skill are displayed in many ways.…

42:23Wednesday, Jan. 2. Dull. I find, by experience, that, let me make resolutions, and do what I will, with never so many inventions, it is all nothing, and to no purpose at all, without the motions of the Spirit of God; for if the Spirit of God should be as much withdrawn from me always, as for the week past, notwithstanding all I do, I should not grow, but should languish, and miserably fade away.…

37:03To those to whom this frame is a burden, there is no more effectual means to stir them up unto endeavors for deliverance than a continual remembrance of former things, and experiences they have had of holy communion with God. This will revive, quicken, and strengthen the things that are ready to die, and beget a self-abhorrence in them in consideration of that woeful frame and temper of mind which, by their sins and negligence, they have brought themselves into.…
It is from an unquestionable and commonly acknowledged truth, that Solomon here urgeth us to diligence in duty; and therefore to prove it would be but loss of time. As there are two worlds for man to live in, and so two lives for man to live, so each of these lives hath its peculiar employment. This is the life of preparation: the next is the life of rewards or punishments. We are now but in the womb of eternity, and must live hereafter in the open world. We are now but sent to school to learn the work that we must do for ever: this is the time of our apprenticeship; we are learning the trade that we must live upon in heaven.…

22:361. God exerts upon the wicked a restraining influence by which they are prevented from doing what they are naturally inclined to do. A striking example of this is seen in Abimelech, king of Gerar. Abraham came down to Gerar, and fearful lest he might be slain on account of his wife, he instructed her to pose as his sister.…

18:26The Sovereignty of God - 1918 - From all eternity God designed that our world should be the stage on which He would display His manifold grace and wisdom in the redemption of lost sinners: "To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Eph 3:10-11). For the accomplishment of this glorious design God has governed the world from the beginning, and will continue it to the end.…

11:42O you drowsy saints, that you can sleep so quietly on it when things all about you are conspiring trouble and threatening danger. Can you sleep like Jonah when seas of wrath are tumbling and roaring all around you and threaten to entomb you and all your pleasures? The stork in the heaven knows her appointed times (Jeremiah 8:7); has God not made you wiser than the fowls of heaven (Job 35:11)? Perhaps the sound of some present judgment might startle you a little, like a sudden clap of thunder in the air, but how soon do sloth and security prevail and overcome you again!…
How diabolical, then, is that madness which pretends that the use of the Scripture is only transient and temporary, which guides the sons of God to the highest point of perfection! I would also ask them another question—whether they have imbibed a different spirit from that which the Lord promised to his disciples?…
