The sacred page is not meant to be the end, but only the means toward the end, which is knowing God Himself.

We know how God would act if he were in our place - he has been in our place.

God and I; here is the beginning and the end of personal religion.

The vague and tenuous hope that God is too kind to punish the ungodly has become a deadly opiate for the consciences of millions.

What then are we to do about our problems? We must learn to live with them until such time as God delivers us from them...we must pray for grace to endure them without murmuring. Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.

Holiness has nothing to do with what we know and everything to do with Who we know.

Deliverance can come to us only by the defeat of our old life. Safety and peace come only after we have been forced to our knees. God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.
