More quotes by Alan Redpath
Deep down in the Christian's life, always and all the time, there is to be a no to every demand that the flesh may make for recognition, and every demand that the flesh may make for approval, and every demand that the flesh may make for vindication. Always the Christian must bear about in his body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

When God wants to do an impossible task, he takes an impossible man, and he crushes him.
Alan Redpath
For every discouragement has been allowed to come to us in order that through it we may be cast in utter helplessness at the Saviour's feet.

The immense step from the Babe at Bethlehem to the living, reigning triumphant Lord Jesus, returning to earth for His own people - that is the glorious truth proclaimed throughout Scripture. As the bells ring out the joys of Christmas, may we also be alert for the final trumpet that will announce His return, when we shall always be with Him.
