What I am anxious to see in Christian believers is a beautiful paradox. I want to see in them the joy of finding God while at the same time they are blessedly pursuing Him. I want to see in them the great joy of having God yet always wanting Him.

Low views of God destroy the gospel for all who hold them.

Only after all the noise has spent itself do we begin to hear in the silence of our heart, the still, small, mighty voice of God.

God dwells in His creation and is everywhere indivisibly present in all His works. He is transcendent above all His works even while He is immanent within them.

Jesus will never qualify or compromise anything he has said.

The believing man does not claim to understand. He falls to his knees and whispers, God. The man of earth kneels also, but not to worship. He kneels to examine, to search, to find the cause and the how of things.

Sometimes I go to God and say, God, if Thou dost never answer another prayer while I live on this earth, I will still worship Thee as long as I live and in the ages to come for what Thou hast done already. God’s already put me so far in debt that if I were to live one million millenniums I couldn’t pay Him for what He’s done for me.

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

Religion today is not transforming people rather it is being transformed by the people. It is not raising the moral level of society it is descending to society's own level, and congratulating itself that it has scored a victory because society is smilingly accepting its surrender.

The true Christian ideal is not to be happy but to be holy.

We pursue God because, and only because, He has first put an urge within us that spurs us to the pursuit.

Breezy, self-confident Christians tell us how wonderful it is to accept Christ and then have a good time all the rest of your life the Lord won't demand anything of you. Yes, He will, my friend! The Lord will demand everything of you. And when you give it all up to Him, He may bless it and hand it back, but on the other hand He may not.

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

Have you noticed how much praying for revival has been going on of late - and how little revival has resulted? I believe the problem is that we have been trying to substitute praying for obeying, and it simply will not work.

The notion that the careless sinner is the smart fellow and the serious-minded Christian, though well-intentioned, is a stupid dolt altogether out of touch with life will not stand up under scrutiny. Sin is basically an act of moral folly, and the greater the folly the greater the fool.

The labor of self-love is a heavy one indeed... The heart's fierce effort to protect itself from every slight, to shield its touchy honor from the bad opinion of friend and enemy, will never let the mind have rest.

If you would follow on to know the Lord, come at once to the open Bible expecting it to speak to you. Do not come with the notion that it is a thing which you may push around at your convenience. It is more than a thing, it is a voice, a word, the very Word of the living God.
