The good news isn't that God is victorious. How can He not be victorious? The good news is we can be victorious, too.

One of the most popular current errors, and the one out of which springs most of the noisy, blustering religious activity in evangelical circles, is the notion that as times change the church must change with them.

The church has lost her testimony. She has no longer anything to say to the world. Her once robust shout of assurance has faded away to an apologetic whisper. She who one time went out to declare now goes out to inquire. Her dogmatic declaration has become a respectful suggestion, a word of religious advice, given with the understanding that it is after all only an opinion and not meant to sound bigoted. Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its culture, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.

Beauty is in the eye of the Creator.

The complacency of Christians is the scandal of Christianity.

Listen to no man who has not listened to God.

What a blessed truth to understand that, in the middle of all of our difficulties and calamities, we have a refuge.
