Holiness provokes hatred. The greater the holiness, the greater the human hostility toward it. It seems insane. No man was ever more loving than Jesus Christ. Yet even His love made people angry. His love was a perfect love, a transcendent and holy love, but HIs very love brought trauma to people. This kind of love is so majestic we can't stand it.

The Advent season is that time when we seek to, in a manner of speaking, mute our memory of what has already happened, that we might brighten our joy that it happened.

The very heart of worship, as the Bible makes clear, is the business of expressing, from the depths of our spirits, the highest possible honor we can offer before God.

Dead men do not cooperate with grace. Unless regeneration takes place first, there is no possibility of faith.

The more I learn about God, the more aware I become of what I don’t know about him.

To call a Christian a theist is roughly equivalent to calling the space shuttle Atlantis a glider.

Christ is still in Christmas, and for one brief season the secular world broadcasts the message of Christ over every radio station and television channel in the land. Never does the church get as much free air time as during the Christmas season.

Confession should be a daily activity for the Christian, whose entire pilgrimage is characterized by the spirit of repentance.

I rest solely in His righteousness and in His atonement because I know there is nothing I can do to make up for my own iniquity.

It's dangerous to assume that because a man is drawn to holiness in his study that he is thereby a holy man. I am sure that the reason that I have a deep hunger to learn of the holiness of God is precisely because I am not holy.
