Every advance that we make for God and for His cause must be made at our inconvenience. If it does not inconvenience us at all, there is no cross in it.

America is laughing her way to Hell.

We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum.

It's not my business to try and make God think like me... but to try, in prayer and penitence, to think like God.

If we try to obey without faith, we get nowhere. If we try to have faith without obedience, it ends in nothing.

We are here to affirm, not to deny... when we affirm all that is God, all that is not God is automatically denied.

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.
