As Christians, we are not to be people without feelings.

Prayer is never an acceptable substitute for obedience. The sovereign Lord accepts no offering from His creatures that is not accompanied by obedience. To pray for revival while ignoring or actually flouting the plain precept laid down in the Scriptures is to waste a lot of words and get nothing for our trouble.

Any objection to the carryings on of our present gold-calf Christianity is met with the triumphant reply, ‘But we are winning them!’ Winning them to what? To true discipleship? To cross-carrying? To self-denial? To separation from the world? To crucifixion of the flesh? To holy living? To hard self-discipline ? To love for God? To total committal to Christ? Of course the answer to all these questions is...No.

The purpose of good works isn't to change us or save us; rather, it's the demonstration of the change within us.

When you focus on the eternal, victorious Son of God, you break the devil's heart and render him powerless.

Most Christians are satisfied living as common Christians, without an insatiable hunger for the deeper things of God.

Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting.
