What has the church gained if it is popular but there is no conviction, no repentance, no power?
Aiden Wilson Tozer
For myself, I long ago decided that I would rather know the truth than be happy in ignorance. If I can not have both truth and happiness, give me truth. We’ll have a long time to be happy in heaven.

The glory of God always comes at the sacrifice of self.

The experiences of men who walked with God in olden times agree to teach that the Lord cannot fully bless the a man until He has first conquered him. The degree of blessing enjoyed by any man will correspond exactly with the completeness of God's victory over him.

We know how God would act if he were in our place - he has been in our place.
