The best way to prove that a stick is crooked is to set a straight one beside it. No words need to be spoken.

To be right with God has often meant to be in trouble with men. This is such a common truth that one hesitates to mention it, yet it appears to have been overlooked by the majority of Christians today.

Walking in humility isn't focusing on what we are NOT; rather, it's declaring what God is.

The victorious Christian neither exalts nor downgrades himself. His interests have shifted from self to Christ.

A real Christian in an odd number anyway. He feels supreme love for One whom he has never seen, talks familiarly every day to Someone he cannot see, expects to go to heaven on the virtue of Another, empties himself in order to be full, admits he is wrong so he can be declared right, goes down in order to get up, is strongest when he is weakest, richest when he is poorest, and happiest when he feels worst. He dies so he can live, forsakes in order to have, gives away so he can keep, sees the invisible, hears the inaudible, and knows that which passes knowledge.

Jesus Christ never thinks about what we have been! He always thinks about what we are going to be.

Heaven is beautiful because it is the expression of that which is the perfection of beauty.
