The Bible is not an end in itself, but a means to bring men to an intimate and satisfying knowledge of God, that they may enter into Him, that they may delight in His Presence, may taste and know the inner sweetness of the very God Himself in the core and center of their hearts.

Speaking as a minister it is my strong feeling that no man has a right to preach to a crowd that he has not prayed for.

I can't sing a lick but that's nobody's business. God listens when I sing to Him and He thinks I am an opera star.

How completely satisfying to turn from [our] limitations to a God who has none.

Nothing is complete in itself but requires something outside itself in order to exist.

For this reason the gravest question before the Church is always God Himself, and the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he is his deep heart conceives God to be like.

I am a Bible Christian and if an archangel with a wingspread as broad as a constellation shining like the sun were to come and offer me some new truth, I'd ask him for a reference. If he could not show me where it is found in the Bible, I would bow him out and say, I'm awfully sorry, you don't bring any references with you
