If I am to wholly follow the Lord Jesus Christ, I must forsake everything that is contrary to Him.

Whoever will listen will hear the speaking heaven. This is definitely not the hour when men take kindly to an exhortation to listen, for listening is not today a part of popular religion. We are at the opposite end of the pole from there. Religion has accepted the monstrous heresy that noise, size, activity and bluster make a man dear to God.

Whenever you see confusion, you can be sure that something is wrong. Disorder in the world implies that something is out of place. Usually, at the heart of all disorder you will find man in rebellion against God. It began in the Garden of Eden and continues to this day.

Constantly practice the habit of inwardly gazing upon God. You know that something inside your heart sees God. Even when you are compelled to withdraw your conscious attention in order to engage in earthly affairs, there is within you a secret communion always going on.

You can be straight as a gun barrel theologically, and as empty as one spiritually.

God spares us because He is good, but He could not be good if He were not just.

Unsaintly saints are the tragedy of Christianity.

The idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians.

An honest man with an open Bible and a pad and pencil is sure to find out what is wrong with him very quickly.

Our walk by faith, if it is true biblical faith, will get us in trouble.

Any faith that must be supported by the evidence of the senses is not real faith.

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.

For this reason the gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he is his deep heart conceives God to be like.
