We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum.

You can see God from anywhere if your mind is set to love and obey Him.

We have learned to live with unholiness and have come to look upon it as the natural and expected thing.

The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.

Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side it is a seizing upon, an apprehending, a conquest by the Most High God. Our 'accepting' and 'willing' are reactions rather than actions. The right of determination must always remain with God.

The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still.

Man appears for a little while to laugh and weep, to work and play, and then to go to make room for those who shall follow him in the never-ending cycle.

'Let God be true but every man a liar' is the language of true faith.

An idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.

In almost everything that touches our everyday life on earth, God is pleased when we're pleased. He wills that we be as free as birds to soar and sing our maker's praise without anxiety.

If God gives you a watch, are you honoring Him more by asking Him what time it is or by simply consulting the watch?

An infinite God can give all of Himself to each of His children. He does not distribute Himself that each may have a part, but to each one He gives all of Himself as fully as if there were no others.

One hundred religious persons knit into a unity by careful organization do not constitute a church any more than eleven dead men make a football team. The first requisite is life, always

It is doubtful we can be Christian in anything unless we are Christian in everything.

Whoever seeks God as a means toward desired ends will not find God. The mighty God, the maker of heaven and earth, will not be one of many treasures, not even the chief of all treasures. He will be all in all or He will be nothing. God will not be used.

Grace is the good pleasure of God that inclines him to bestow benefits on the undeserving.

Until the Bible begins to talk to us, we really have not been reading it.

God's justice and God's mercy do not quarrel with each other.

Is it ever possible to overdo the talking about the glory of Christ? Is it ever too often to be in God's presence?

A whole new generation of Christians has come up believing that it is possible to 'accept' Christ without forsaking the world.

Our problem is that we go from toy to toy rather than from glory to glory.

God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.

The meetings least attended in our churches today are the ones whose only attraction is God.

The church has lost her testimony. She has no longer anything to say to the world. Her once robust shout of assurance has faded away to an apologetic whisper. She who one time went out to declare now goes out to inquire. Her dogmatic declaration has become a respectful suggestion, a word of religious advice, given with the understanding that it is after all only an opinion and not meant to sound bigoted. Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its culture, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.
