Quote

You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody.

Faith never means gullibility. The man who believes everything is as far from God as the man who refuses to believe anything.

Faith is seeing the invisible, but not the nonexistent.

Our error today is that we do not expect a converted man to be a transformed man, and as a result of this error our churches are full of substandard Christians. A revival is among other things a return to the belief that real faith invariably produces holiness of heart and righteousness of life.

A church can wither as surely under the ministry of soulless Bible exposition as it can where no Bible is given. To be effective the preacher's message must be alive it must alarm, arouse, challenge it must be God's present voice to a particular people. Then, and not till then, is it the prophetic word and the man himself a prophet.

This is the tragedy and woe of the hour--that we neglect the most important One who could possibly be in our midst--the Holy Spirit of God. Then, in order to make up for His absence, we have to do something to keep up our own spirits.

God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.

We are here to affirm, not to deny... when we affirm all that is God, all that is not God is automatically denied.

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.

Abounding sin is the terror of the world, but abounding grace is the hope of mankind.

The good news isn't that God is victorious. How can He not be victorious? The good news is we can be victorious, too.

My miseries have always come out of my own flesh, never from any burden Jesus has laid on me.
