Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He IS that standard.

The true Church has never sounded out public expectations before launching her mission. Her leaders heard from God, they knew their Lord's will and did it. Their people followed them - sometimes to triumph, oftener to insults and public persecution - and their sufficient reward was the satisfaction of being right in a wrong world!

Progress in the Christian life is exactly equal to the growing knowledge we gain of the Triune God in personal experience.

Worship, I say, rises or falls with our concept of God .... and if there is one terrible disease in the Church of Christ, it is that we do not see God as great as He is.

You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody.

The Church can't be a religious theater where paid men perform for the religious amusement of the people who pay them.

I want the presence of God Himself, or I don't want anything at all to do with religion... I want all that God has or I don't want any.
