Made as we were in the image of God we scarcely find it strange to take again our God as our All. God was our original habitat and our hearts cannot but feel at home when they enter again that ancient and beautiful abode.

God loves us for ourselves. He values our love more than he values galaxies of new created worlds.

The true Church has never sounded out public expectations before launching her mission. Her leaders heard from God, they knew their Lord's will and did it. Their people followed them - sometimes to triumph, oftener to insults and public persecution - and their sufficient reward was the satisfaction of being right in a wrong world!

God does not love us because we are hard or easy to love, He loves us because He is God.

We get our moral bearings by looking at God. We must begin with God. We are right when, and only when, we stand in a right position relative to God, and we are wrong so far and so long as we stand in any other position.

The Christian is a holy rebel loose in the world with access to the throne of God.

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.

Only as He is faithful will His covenants stand and His promises be honored. Only as we have complete assurance that He is faithful may we live in peace and look forward with assurance to the life to come.

Where God is not glorified, that place is sick

Though the cross of Christ has been beautified by the poet and the artist, the avid seeker after God is likely to find it the same savage implement of destruction it was in the days of old. The way of the cross is still the pain-wracked path to spiritual power and fruitfulness.

True faith rests upon the character of God and asks no further proof than the moral perfections of the One who cannot lie.

What's closest to your heart is what you talk about, and if God is close to your heart, you'll talk about Him.

But the sons of this world have not God they have only each other, and they walk holding to each other and looking to one another for assurance like frightened children.

Whoever seeks God as a means toward desired ends will not find God. The mighty God, the maker of heaven and earth, will not be one of many treasures, not even the chief of all treasures. He will be all in all or He will be nothing. God will not be used.
