Hell is the best reward that the devil can give you for being his servant!

There are two hundred and fifty-six names given in the Bible for the Lord Jesus Christ.
I suppose this is because He is infinitely beyond all that any one name could express.

The fellow that has no money, is poor.
The fellow that has nothing but money, is poorer still.

Whiskey and beer are all right in their place, but their place is in Hell! The saloon is the sum of all villainies. It is worse than war or pestilence. It is the crime of crimes. It is parent of crimes and the mother of sins. It is the appalling source of misery in the land, and the principal cause of crime. To license such an incarnate fiend of Hell is the dirtiest, low-down, damnable business on top of this old earth!

Spurgeon: "Drunkenness is the devil's back door to Hell and everything that is hellish. For he who once gives away his brains to drink is ready to be caught by Satan for anything!"
