What then are we to do about our problems? We must learn to live with them until such time as God delivers us from them...we must pray for grace to endure them without murmuring. Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.

Until we believe that we are as bad as God says we are, we can never believe that He will do for us what He says He will do. Right here is where popular religion breaks down.

God's Word is true whether we believe it or not. Human unbelief cannot alter the character of God.

Faith is an organ of knowledge, and love an organ of experience.

The purpose of good works isn't to change us or save us rather, it's the demonstration of the change within us.

And what kind of habitation pleases God? What must our natures be like before he can feel at home within us? He asks nothing but a pure heart and a single mind. He asks no rich paneling, no rugs from the Orient, no art treasures from afar. He desires but sincerity, transparency, humility, and love. He will see to the rest.

It is possible that we can get so busy doing work 'for' the Lord that we have no time FOR the Lord.

The great test of faith is to wait on God. . . not expecting to push a button and get whatever we want now.

We have our ambition for the future and God. And thus we put God as a plus sign after something else we want.

God calls us to worship, but in many instances we are in entertainment, just running a poor second to the theaters. That is where we are, even in the evangelical churches, and I don't mind telling you that most of the people we say we are trying to reach will never come to a church to see a lot of amateur actors putting on a home-talent show.

Faith in faith is faith astray.

Image
We can afford to follow Him to failure. Faith dares to fail. The resurrection and the judgment will demonstrate before all worlds who won and who lost. We can wait.

No one can know the true grace of God who has not first known the fear of God.

Men are not revived because they sing they sing because they are revived.

We get the odd notion that God is showing mercy because Jesus died. No. Jesus died because God is showing mercy.

There is a better way. It is to repudiate our own wisdom and take instead the infinite wisdom of God.

The only fear I have is to fear to get out of the will of God. Outside of the will of God, there's nothing I want, and in the will of God there's nothing I fear, for God has sworn to keep me in His will. If I'm out of his will that's another matter. But if I'm in His will, He's sworn to keep me.

One thing is certain: the call of Christ is always a promotion. Were Christ to call a king from his throne to preach the gospel to some tribe of aborigines, that king would be elevated above anything he had known before. Any movement toward Christ is ascent, and any direction away from Him is down.

Christianity at any given time is strong or weak depending upon her concept of God.
