The most dangerous trap is just living and forgetting that God exists.

No one can long worship God in spirit and in truth before the obligation to holy service becomes too strong to resist.

History is little more than the story of man's sin, and the daily newspaper a running commentary on it.

The scriptures are in print what Christ is in person.

The author squares man's depravity with still being made in the image of God with this word picture. A vase that has held beautiful roses though now broken, will nevertheless hold something of the fragrance it once contained.

The purpose of good works isn't to change us or save us; rather, it's the demonstration of the change within us.

To avoid the hard necessity of either obeying or rejecting the plain instructions of our Lord in the New Testament we take refuge in a liberal interpretation of them. We evangelicals also know how to avoid the sharp point of obedience by means of fine and intricate explanations. These are tailor-made for the flesh. They excuse disobedience, comfort carnality and make the words of Christ of none effect. And the essence of it all is that Christ simply could not have meant what He said. His teachings are accepted even theoretically only after they have been weakened by interpretation.
