“We must meet the uncertainties of this world with the certainty of the world to come.”
“The Cross is the lightning rod of grace that short-circuited God’s wrath to Christ so that only the light of His love remains for believers.”
“Jesus Christ knows the worst about you. Nonetheless, He is the one who loves you the most.”
“If you do all the talking when you pray, how will you ever hear God’s answers?”

“…many are guilty of merely ‘nibbling’ at the truth of the Christian Gospel.”
“God does his deepest work in our darkest hours.”
“It is not what a man does that determines whether his work is sacred or secular; it is why he does it. The motive is everything. Let a man sanctify the Lord God in his heart and he can thereafter do no common act. All he does is good and acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For such a man, living itself will be sacramental and the whole world a sanctuary. His entire life will be a priestly ministration. As he performs his never-so-simple task, he will hear the voice of the seraphim saying, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of the hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.”
“Being made in His image we have within us the capacity to know Him. In our sins we lack only the power. The moment the Spirit has quickened us to life in regeneration our whole being senses its kinship to God and leaps up in joyous recognition.”

“It appears that too many Christians want to enjoy the thrill of feeling right but are not willing to endure the inconvenience of being right.”
“Only the redeemed have the ability to like what God likes and to be pleased with what pleases God.”
“To be specific, the self-sins are these: self-righteousness, self-pity, self-confidence, self-sufficiency, self-admiration, self-love and a host of others like them.”
“Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth. Acute desire must be present or there will be no manifestation of Christ to His people. He waits to be wanted. Too bad that with many of us He waits so long, so very long, in vain.”
“When God justifies a sinner everything in God is on the sinner’s side.”
“The Bible is a whole series of highways, all leading toward God. And when the text has been illuminated and the believer of the text knows that God is the end toward which he is moving, then that man has real faith.”
