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!

Plain horse sense ought to tell us that anything that makes no change in the man who professes it makes no difference to God, either.

We have learned to live with unholiness and have come to look upon it as the natural and expected thing.

Any faith that must be supported by the evidence of the senses is not real faith.

The man who preaches truth and applies it to the lives of his hearers will feel the nails and the thorns. He will lead a hard life, but a glorious one. May God raise up many such prophets. The church needs them badly.

There is more healing joy in five minutes of true worship than in five nights of revelry.

Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.
