The degree of blessing enjoyed by any man will correspond exactly with the completeness of God's victory over him.

Faith is the gaze of a soul upon a saving God.

The Christian church was designed to make sinners sweat. I have always believed that, and I still believe it. The messages preached in our churches should make backslidden Christians sweat. And if I achieve that objective when I preach, I thank God with all of my heart, no matter what people think of me.

The fact of God is necessary for the fact of man. Think God away and man has no ground of existence.

Has it ever occurred to you that one hundred pianos all tuned to the same fork are automatically tuned to each other? They are of one accord by being tuned, not to each other, but to another standard to which each one must individually bow. So one hundred worshipers met together, each one looking away to Christ, are in heart nearer to each other than they could possibly be, were they to become 'unity' conscious and turn their eyes away from God to strive for closer fellowship.

The man who comes to a right belief about God is relieved of ten thousand temporal problems.

Complacency is easy...and it is a deadly foe of spiritual growth.
