I did not go through the Book. The Book went through me.

God purposed redemption in Christ Jesus before the world began, and His plan does not need any editing by man.

If we can trust the sufferings of Christ for our sake then we can trust Christ when we suffer for His sake.

To know the Creator and the God of all the universe is to revere Him. It is to bow down before Him in wonder and awesome fear.

What I am anxious to see in Christian believers is a beautiful paradox. I want to see in them the joy of finding God while at the same time they are blessedly pursuing Him. I want to see in them the great joy of having God yet always wanting Him.

The Church has surrendered her once lofty concept of God and has substituted for it one so low, so ignoble, as to be utterly unworthy of thinking, worshiping men. This she has not done deliberately, but little by little and without her knowledge; and her very unawareness only makes her situation all the more tragic.

A Christian should put away all defense and make no attempt to excuse himself either in his own eyes or before the Lord. Whoever defends himself will have himself for his defense, and he will have no other. But let him come defenseless before the Lord and he will have for his defender no less than God Himself.
