Quote

The unattended garden will soon be overrun with weeds the heart that fails to cultivate truth and root out error will shortly be a theological wilderness.

Unbelief is actually perverted faith, for it puts its faith not in the living God, but in dying men.

Image
Repentance isn't only sorrow for past sins, it's also a determination to now do the will of God as He reveals it to us

My aim each day is to adore God more than anything else.

Retire from the world each day to some private spot. Stay in the secret place till the surrounding noises begin to fade out of your heart and a sense of God's presence envelops you. Deliberately tune out the unpleasant sounds and come out of your closet determined not to hear them. Listen for the inward voice till you learn to recognize it.

In trying to count our many blessings the difficulty is not to find things to count, but to find time to enumerate them all.

The true Christian is one who is kind of sick of this world. If I find anybody who is settled down too snugly into this world, I am made to doubt whether he's ever truly been born again

God purposed redemption in Christ Jesus before the world began, and His plan does not need any editing by man.

To be right with God has often meant to be in trouble with men.

I can't sing a lick but that's nobody's business. God listens when I sing to Him and He thinks I am an opera star.

Wise leaders should have known that the human heart cannot exist in a vacuum. If Christians are forbidden to enjoy the wine of the Spirit they will turn to the wine of the flesh....Christ died for our hearts and the Holy Spirit wants to come and satisfy them.

Image
The love of God is one of the great realities of the universe, a pillar upon which the hope of the world rests. But it is a personal, intimate thing too. God does not love populations, He loves people. He loves not masses, but men.

The Christian is strong or weak depending upon how closely he has cultivated the knowledge of God.

Image
The poor quality of Christian that grows out of our modern evangelistic meeting may be accounted for by the absence of real repentance accompanying the initial spiritual experience of the converts. And the absence of repentance is the result of an inadequate view of sin and sinfulness held by those who present themselves in the inquiry room.

God's gifts are many His best gift is one. It is the gift of Himself.

It will cost you everything to follow the Lord. And it will cost you even more to be His man for this hour.

Worshipers never leave church...we carry our sanctuary with us wherever we go.

It's time for us to rise up, get out of the rut and routine, and begin to take our Christian faith seriously.

The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

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.

God formed us for His pleasure, and so formed us that we as well as He can in divine communion enjoy the sweet and mysterious mingling of kindred personalities. He meant us to see Him and live with Him and draw our life from His smile.
