Quote

I accomplish more when I rest wholly in the labor of Jesus than I do when I frantically try to do the work for Him.

The man who has been taught by the Holy Spirit will be a seer rather than a scholar. The difference is that the scholar sees and the seer sees through and that is a mighty difference indeed.

The Church can't be a religious theater where paid men perform for the religious amusement of the people who pay them.

If worship bores you, you are not ready for heaven.

I believe that entertainment and amusements are the work of the Enemy to keep dying men from knowing they're dying and to keep enemies of God from remembering that they're enemies.

Because we have shut out the Holy Spirit in so many ways, we are stumbling along as though we are spiritually blindfolded.

The Spirit-filled life is not a special, deluxe edition of Christianity. It is part and parcel of the total plan of God for His people.

Where God and man are in relationship, this must be the ideal. God must be the communicator, and man must be in the listening, obeying attitude. If men and women are not willing to assume this listening attitude, there will be no meeting with God in living, personal experience.

If we cooperate with Him in loving obedience, God will manifest Himself to us, and that manifestation will be the difference between a nominal Christian life and a life radiant with the light of His face.

The most important thing you think is what you think about God.

Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side it is a seizing upon, an apprehending, a conquest by the Most High God. Our 'accepting' and 'willing' are reactions rather than actions. The right of determination must always remain with God.

The church can have light only as it is full of the Spirit, and it can be full only as the members that compose it are filled individually.

We who follow Christ are men and women of eternity. We must put no confidence in the passing scenes of the disappearing world. We must resist every attempt of Satan to palm off upon us the values that belong to mortality. Nothing less than forever is long enough for us.

The meek man is not a human mouse afflicted with a sense of his own inferiority. He has accepted God's estimate of his own life: In himself, nothing In God, everything. He knows well that the world will never see him as God sees him and he has stopped caring.

The creeping wilderness will soon take over that church that trusts in its own strength and forgets to watch and pray.

We must break the evil habit of ignoring the spiritual. We must shift our interest from the seen to the unseen.

Image
We must of necessity be servant to someone, either to God or to sin. The man who surrenders to Christ exchanges a cruel slave driver for a kind and gentle master whose yoke is easy and whose burden is light.

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

What is wrong with Christians today is that we have the gifts of God but have forgotten the God of the gifts.

The notion that the careless sinner is the smart fellow and the serious-minded Christian, though well-intentioned, is a stupid dolt altogether out of touch with life will not stand up under scrutiny. Sin is basically an act of moral folly, and the greater the folly the greater the fool.

If you have to be reasoned into Christianity, some wise fellow can reason you out of it! If you come to Christ by a flash of the Holy Spirit so that by intuition you know that you are God's child, you know it by the text but you also know it by the inner light, the inner illumination of the Spirit, and no one can ever reason you out of it.
