Quote

The man that believes will obey failure to obey is convincing proof that there is no true faith present. To attempt the impossible God must give faith or there will be none, and He gives faith to the obedient heart only.

As Christians, we are not to be people without feelings.

We may say simply that in the sight of God we are judged not so much by what we do as by our reasons for doing it.

We might be wise to follow the insight of the enraptured heart rather than the more cautious reasoning of the theological mind.

Without doubt, the mightiest thought the mind can entertain is the thought of God, and the weightest word in any language is its word for God.

Do not allow the enemy of your soul to rob you of that unique quality God has breathed into you.

If faith is the gaze of the heart at God, and if this gaze is but the raising of the inward eyes to meet the all-seeing eyes of God, then it follows that it is one of the easiest things possible to do.

Nothing in or of this world measures up to the simple pleasure of experiencing the presence of God.

The low view of God entertained almost universally among Christians is the cause of a hundred lesser evils everywhere among us.

For it is not mere words that nourish the soul, but God Himself, and unless and until the hearers find God in personal experience they are not the better for having heard the truth.

Faith is not a once-done act, but a continuous gaze of the heart at the Triune God.

We are called not to adjust ourselves to each other, but to adjust ourselves to God.

Nowhere in the Word of God is there any text or passage or line that can be twisted or tortured into teaching that the organic living church of Jesus Christ just prior to His return will not have every right and every power and every obligation that she knew in that early part of the book of Acts.

Thinking carries a moral imperative. The searcher for truth must be ready to obey truth without reservation or it will elude him.

It is useless for large companies of believers to spend long hours begging God to send revival. Unless we intend to reform we may as well not pray. Unless praying men have the insight and faith to amend their whole way of life to conform to the New Testament pattern there can be no true revival.

God's justice and God's mercy do not quarrel with each other.

The victorious Christian neither exalts nor downgrades himself. His interests have shifted from self to Christ. What he is or is not no longer concerns him. He believes that he has been crucified with Christ and he is not willing either to praise or deprecate such a man.

The cross where Jesus died became also the cross where His apostle died. The loss, the rejection, the shame, belong both to Christ and to all who in very truth are His. the cross that saves them also slays them, and anything short of this is a pseudo-faith and not true faith at all.

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.
