Faith, as Paul saw it, was a living, flaming thing leading to surrender and obedience to the commandments of Christ.

I do not know why God does some things, but I am convinced that nothing is accidental in his universe.

There is no place to hide but in the blood of the Lamb.

Our walk by faith, if it is true biblical faith, will get us in trouble.

The God of the modern evangelical rarely astonishes anybody. He manages to stay pretty much with the constitution. Never break our by-laws. He's a very well-behaved God and very denominational and very much like one of us...we ask Him to help us when we're in trouble and look to Him to watch over us when we're asleep. The God of the modern evangelical isn't a God I could have much respect for.

Are you satisfied being filled with good information about God, or do you long to burst into His manifest presence?

The essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He also wants to do through us.
