When people sugarcoat Christianity, arrange it all nicely, they have, in effect, taken away the Cross.

The driver on the highway is safe not when He reads the signs, but when He obeys them.

Always the most revealing thing about the church is her idea of God.

When our Lord looked at us, He saw not only what we were -- He was faithful in seeing what we could become! He took away the curse of being and gave us the glorious blessing of becoming.

This is the tragedy and woe of the hour--that we neglect the most important One who could possibly be in our midst--the Holy Spirit of God. Then, in order to make up for His absence, we have to do something to keep up our own spirits.

Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

Promoting self under the guise of promoting Christ is currently so common as to excite little notice.
