Quote

The cross is the lightning rod of grace that short-circuits God's wrath to Christ so that only the light of His love remains for believers.

The atonement in Jesus Christ's blood is perfect there isn't anything that can be added to it. It is spotless, impeccable, flawless. It is perfect as God is perfect.

Pseudo faith always arranges a way out to serve in case God fails it. Real faith knows only one way and gladly allows itself to be stripped of any second way or makeshift substitutes. For true faith, it is either God or total collapse.

Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

There are two classes of Christians: the proud who imagine they are humble and the humble who are afraid they are proud. There should be another class: the self-forgetful who leave the whole thing in the hands of Christ and refuse to waste any time trying to make themselves good. They will reach the goal far ahead of the rest.

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.

We ought not to be looking for a place to hide, but a place to give ourselves as an offering to God.

To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul's paradox of love, scorned indeed by the too-easily-satisfied religionist, but justified in happy experience by the children of the burning heart.

To me, it has always been difficult to understand those evangelical Christians who insist upon living in the crisis as if no crisis existed. They say they serve the Lord, but they divide their days so as to leave plenty of time to play and loaf and enjoy the pleasures of the world as well. They are at ease while the world burns.

The man who comes to a right belief about God is relieved of ten thousand temporal problems.
