The notion that the careless sinner is the smart fellow and the serious-minded Christian, though well-intentioned, is a stupid dolt altogether out of touch with life will not stand up under scrutiny. Sin is basically an act of moral folly, and the greater the folly the greater the fool.

The pain of sacrificing our old selves is nothing compared to the joy of Christ living in us in our transformed lives.

Repentance isn't only sorrow for past sins, it's also a determination to now do the will of God as He reveals it to us

It's hard to rest knowing that millions of people merely carry on religious traditions but don't actually reach God.

We may sing, 'Crown Him Lord of all,' and rejoice in the tones of the loud-sounding organ and the deep melody of harmonious voices, but still we have done nothing until we have left the world and set our faces toward the city of God in hard practical reality. When faith becomes obedience then it is true faith indeed.

We are too quick to live this life and forget that there is another world to come...this is not the end.

We have become so engrossed in the work of the Lord that we have forgotten the Lord of the work.
