More quotes by William Barclay
The word grace emphasizes at one and the same time the helpless poverty of man and the limitless kindness of God.
William Barclay
Strict orthodoxy can cost too much if it has to be bought at the price of love. All the orthodoxy in the world will never take the place of love.
William Barclay
It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.
William Barclay
Self-defense is a part of the law of nature nor can it be denied the community, even against the king himself.
William Barclay

William Barclay
We may not understand how the spirit works but the effect of the spirit on the lives of men is there for all to see and the only unanswerable argument for Christianity is a Christian life. No man can disregard a religion and a faith and a power which is able to make bad men good. . .
William Barclay
Prayer will never do our work for us what it will do is to strengthen us for work which must be done.

William Barclay
The danger of prosperity is that it encourages a false independence.
William Barclay
Faith in God is the instrument which enables men and women to remove the hills of difficulty which block their path.
William Barclay
We will often find compensation if we think more of what life has given us and less about what life has taken away.
William Barclay
The terrible importance of this life is that it determines eternity.
William Barclay
...for Paul faith is always faith in a person. Faith is not the intellectual acceptance of a body of doctrine faith is faith in a person.
William Barclay
Religion fails if it cannot speak to men as they are.
William Barclay
There is no joy in the world like the joy of bringing one soul to Christ.
William Barclay
Jesus is the yes to every promise of God.
William Barclay
Faith is not only commitment to the promises of Christ it is also commitment to his demands.
William Barclay
The Christian man must aim at that complete obedience to God in which life finds its highest happiness, its greatest good, its perfect consummation, its peace.
William Barclay
