More quotes by E. Stanley Jones
If we know how to pray, we know how to live.
E. Stanley Jones
Very often when I haven't faith in my faith, I have to have faith in His faith. He makes me believe in myself and my possibilities, when I simply can't. I have to rise to His faith in me.
E. Stanley Jones
If you don't make up your mind, your unmade mind will unmake you.
E. Stanley Jones
We must be willing to be guided of God, not merely now and then, but as a life proposition.
E. Stanley Jones
Prayer is commission. Out of the quietness with God, power is generated that turns the spiritual machinery of the world. When you pray, you begin to feel the sense of being sent, that the divine compulsion is upon you.
E. Stanley Jones
A reduced Christ is the same as a rejected Christ.
E. Stanley Jones
When the depths are upheld by the Holy Spirit, then the reaction is Christian.
E. Stanley Jones
If you find something that gets hold of you in the Word, pass it on to somebody that very day.
E. Stanley Jones
Surrender the thing you fear into the hands of God. Turn it right over to God and ask Him to solve it with you. Fear is keeping things in your own hands faith is turning them over into the hands of God.
E. Stanley Jones
When I met Christ, I felt that I had swallowed sunshine.
E. Stanley Jones
In conversion you are not attached primarily to an order, nor to an institution, nor a movement, nor a set of beliefs, nor a code of action - you are attached primarily to a Person, and secondarily to these other things.
E. Stanley Jones
The God I find in Christ is a God who overcomes evil with good, hate by love, and the world by a cross.
E. Stanley Jones
Grace is free, but when once you take it, you are bound forever to the Giver and bound to catch the spirit of the Giver.
E. Stanley Jones
The BIBLE redirects my will, cleanses my emotions, enlightens my mind, and quickens my total being
E. Stanley Jones
Prayer is surrender--surr ender to the will of God and cooperation with that will. If I throw out a boathook from the boat and catch hold of the shore and pull, do I pull the shore to me, or do I pull myself to the shore? Prayer is not pulling God to my will, but the aligning of my will to the will of God.
E. Stanley Jones
A Rattlesnake, if Cornered will become so angry it will bite itself. That is exactly what the harboring of hate and resentment against others is -- a biting of oneself. We think we are harming others in holding these spites and hates, but the deeper harm is to ourselves.
E. Stanley Jones
God, to redeem us at the deepest portion of our nature - the urge to love and be loved - must reveal His nature in an incredible and impossible way. He must reveal it at a cross.
E. Stanley Jones
A nail-pierced hand holds the sceptre of the universe, and my knees bend before him.
E. Stanley Jones
We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins.
E. Stanley Jones
Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence.
