If I am to wholly follow the Lord Jesus Christ, I must forsake everything that is contrary to Him.

In every Christian's Heart, there is a cross and a throne, and the Christian is on the throne till he puts himself on the cross; if he refuses the cross, he remains on the throne. Perhaps this is at the bottom of the backsliding and worldliness among Gospel believers today. We want to be saved, but we insist that Christ do all the dying. No cross for us, no dethronement, no dying. We remain king within the little kingdom of man's soul and wear our tinsel crown with all the pride of a caesar; but we doom ourselves to shadows and weakness and spiritual sterility.

Men are free to decide their own moral choices, but they are also under the necessity to account to God for those choices.

The best book is not one that informs merely, but one that stirs the reader up to inform himself.

God takes that which is nothing and makes something out of it. When you become a Christian, you cannot patch your Christianity onto your old life. You are to start over. Accept God's call as a promotion. Burn the old bridges and fix it so you cannot go back ; then serve God with all your heart.

Listen to no man who has not listened to God.

God answers our prayers not because we are good, but because He is good.
