It is either all of Christ or none of Christ! I believe we need to preach again a whole Christ to the world - a Christ who does not need our apologies, a Christ who will not be divided, a Christ who will either be Lord of all or will not be Lord at all!

Christians should be the boldest people in the world-not cocky and sure of ourselves, but sure of Him.

Whenever God begins something, we have the assurance that He will finish it. Nothing will stand in the way of Him accomplishing His purpose in this world and in our lives. What God starts, He finishes, and nobody can hinder Him. Sure, delays will happen. Just remember, God is in charge of the delays as well as the progress.

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.

Most Christians would rather be happy than feel the wounds of other peoples' sorrows.

Image
When our Lord looked at us, He saw not only what we were -- He was faithful in seeing what we could become! He took away the curse of being and gave us the glorious blessing of becoming.

Spiritual Christians look upon the world not as a playground but as a battleground.

The cross stands high above the opinions of men and to that cross all opinions must come at last for judgment.

To great sections of the church the art of worship has been lost entirely, and in its place has come that strange and foreign thing called the 'program.' This word has been borrowed from the stage and applied with sad wisdom to the type of public service which now passes for worship among us.

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

When men no longer fear God, they transgress His laws without hesitation. The fear of consequences is no deterrent when the fear of God is gone.

Listen to no man who has not listened to God.

God works as long as His people live daringly He ceases when they no longer need His aid.
