Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its environment, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.

The various elements of truth stand in perpetual antithesis, sometimes requiring us to believe apparent opposites while we wait for the moment when we shall know as we are known.

A true leader will have no desire to lord it over God’s heritage. He is rather ready to follow as well as lead.

Men are not revived because they sing; they sing because they are revived.

The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven't yet come to the end of themselves. We're still trying to give orders, and interfering with God's work within us.

I cannot recall, in any of my reading, a single instance of a prophet who applied for the job.

In coming to Christ we don't bring our old life up to a higher plane; we leave it at the cross.
