If lips and life do not agree, the testimony will not amount to much.

Faith is to rest, not in the best of God's servants, but in His unchanging Word.

No one who really wants to count for God can afford to play at Christianity.

It is well to remember that reading books about the Bible is a very different thing to searching the Word for oneself.

God is looking for broken men who have judged themselves in the light of the cross of Christ. When He wants anything done, He takes up men who have come to the end of themselves, whose confidence is not in themselves, but in God.

It is not only that sin consists in doing evil, but in not doing the good that we know.

Time is given us to use in view of eternity.

To tell a man who has no realization that he is lost, that he may be saved by faith in Christ, means nothing to him, however true and blessed the fact is in itself.

Grace is the very opposite of merit... Grace is not only undeserved favor, but it is favor, shown to the one who has deserved the very opposite.

Sin had no sooner come into the world than God came in grace seeking the sinner, and so from the first question, 'Adam, where art thou?' on to the incarnation, God has been speaking to man.

No one ever lost out by excessive devotion to Christ.

The Christian life is never static. One must either grow in grace, or there will be backsliding and deterioration.

To the lover of the Lord Jesus Christ there can be nothing legal about baptism. It is simply the glad expression of a grateful heart recognizing its identity with Christ in death, burial, and resurrection. Many of us look back to the moment when we were thus baptized as one of the most precious experiences we have ever known.

If what they are saying about you is true, mend your ways. If it isn't true, forget it, and go on and serve the Lord.
