  • Let no man deceive you with vain words or vain hopes or false notions of a slight and sudden repentance.

No, no, as sure as God is true, they shall never see the Kingdom of God who, instead of seeking it in the first place, make it their last refuge and retreat.

    John Tillotson (1696). “The Works of the Most Reverend Dr. John Tillotson ...: Containing Fifty Four Sermons and Discourses, on Several Occasions. Together with The Rule of Faith”, p.663
  • If people would but provide for eternity with the same solicitude and real care as they do for this life, they could not fail of heaven.

But though the commandments of God be not grievous, yet it is fit to let men know that they are not thus easy.

    John Tillotson (1720). “The Works of the Most Reverend Dr. John Tillotson, Late Lord Archbishop of Canterbury: Containing Fifty Four Sermons and Discourses on Several Occasions. Together with the Rule of Faith”, p.69
